Well, judging from the site's headers, you seem to be running "eZ
systems" CMS, and if you go to their site, they have a footer in their
page. So I'm guessing its a limitation of your understanding of the
CMS :)
That said, I have some experience with CMSes (having tested a couple
of them for internal use at our university) and I've found that CMSes
are usually overkill for this kind of work. Static pages + a wiki/trac
is really all you need for a complete content management system.
Right now we're using MoinMoin + static pages for all of our work, and
I personally find it to be much more flexible than our earlier Drupal.
