I think for a long term period we could investigate Drupal as an option. Drupal is a widely used portal platform and we can find a lot of Drupal experience in OpenStack community. It have good practices of maintenance and development, so we don't need to reinvent the wheel here.
Anyway I don't think that Drupal is the ultimate solution for every IT problem. I suggest to write a bit more detailed requirement specification, and check the pros and cons of possible solutions.
