Have to agree with Allfather, there are plenty of existing CMS solutions as well as other frameworks which could get the job done shockingly fast. You could even use something as simple as Wordpress, yes it's a bit of a nightmare for security but it can do news and static pages quite quickly. Personally I'd go with Django these days, but I'm sure there are plenty of options.
One question,
what exactly is being done to prevent the next version of the portal from being a failure?
The same mistakes seem to happen with every version of the portal, so I'd like to know just what steps are being taken to ensure that we don't end up with yet another dead portal in a few months time. I don't want to see another batch of false promises which won't be implemented.
It's sad to see the constant failure of the portals.
