I don't know how far you are willing to go to ease your job. But,
there are a few other CMS'es out there that allow you to use flat
files instead of Db/MySQL,
www.limbo-cms.com is a derivative of Mambo and is open-source, but
requires that the server run PHP. Very nice set-up.
flatcms.pku-info.org is a simple flat file cms that is very quick and
easy to work with, but also requires that the server run PHP. very
easy to use.
