Recently I've been meditating on a comment from Jon Udell:

"It is completely feasible for a novice to download Zope, install it,
and build a simple site -- even one that leverages the object hierarchy
to factor out repetitive pieces -- without writing any code. And the
result is 100% Web-manageable."

This could be a start.
