It seems like maybe it failed? I am new to SF, but I just logged in 
again today and it says I have no active projects.

That sounds like a good plan. But how it is integrated into CVS 
depends on what type of site gets implemented.

Should we have a blog on the front page that people can post to with 
status updates (similar to source.bungie.org, I guess, except it'd 
allow posting by any developer rather than just Jesse), or a simple 
static HTML page that we update manually?

The former is more flexible, but also more complicated. I'm working 
with Movable Type (a blog package) on another Web site right now. 
Perhaps, if we were to use that, we could simply check in the HTML 
and CSS templates used within MT.

Opinions welcome. I can do either. A Movable Type installation 
(assuming it's possible on sourceforge) is a little more painful 
initially, but very elegant once done. A static HTML page I can throw 
up in a night, but it's a nearly equivalent amount of work each time 
it gets updated.
