I've considered using SVN+Apache behind one or more Squid caches for
serving pages:
  * Easy remote update (via SVN command-line or other tools;
TortoiseSVN even makes manual updates easy for most Windows users).
  * Easy tracking and rollback.
  * No need to mess with explicit "export" processes; simply
committing the change to SVN makes it available.

Not sure if this suits your needs or not, but I
thought I'd throw the idea out there.

Cheers,
