Having it handled by CVS instead of a webgui-CMS doesn't mean to have no CMS at all. There are some CM-systems out there that can create the content out of simple text files with a simple markup language. This would allow to keep the CVS structure and have people to write articles without having to mess around with web developing.
There's an even more interesting project, called WCV (web content viewer). It's basically a CMS that creates content out of text files with a basic markup. The cool thing is, that it even uses SVN (or CVS) metadata to track revisions and so on. It supports RSS and some stuff like this, but is still not functional enough to be used directly. Anyway - the concept is interesting and something like this might be a good choice.
