Definitely scripting and CMS should be avoided.  There are too many
opportunities for something to go wrong.  The site's technology should
be as simple as possible.  Straight XHTML should do.  If standardized
headers, footers, and menus are wanted, then SSI can do that without the
need for adding in Perl, PHP, Java or anything else like that.
