The CeltiXfire project is also looking at using cwiki for its main site and its documentation. I'm still not convinced about it being a great idea, but the Wiki does make editing easy. There is no messing around with HTML or XML files. It is a regular Confluence wiki and does have the ability to do static export of the content. To get the stuff to look really good though you need to create export themes using Confluence's theme engine which uses Velocity. Without the theme it looks pretty terrible. What Geronimo did, and CeltiXfire is going to emulate, is create several spaces on cwiki for the project. One space is the where the main site is created and has pretty restricted access. The other spaces have different access privileges and are used for documentation and developer spaces. This provides some flexibility around access control and look and feel. I've done a little poking around with the theme stuff and it does not look too hard. I haven't actually gotten around to creating and testing one though. Another option is to use the Maven site building stuff. It is also pretty powerful and can be skinned.
