Yes, it is really very simple and elegant.
However people still seem to find it an impediment
to updating the website.

We actually have a cronjob there, which automatically
does the 'svn update' on the server every 12 hours
(see ~crossley/bin/). So all that we need to do is commit
our generated site changes to the forrest/trunk/site/
and the rest is automated.
