There is Skeletonz http://orangoo.com/skeletonz/

Which is pretty "user friendly" from the demos I see.

Some of the sites built using are :
http://aspuru.unix.fas.harvard.edu/About/ and http://birc.au.dk/
which are pretty good looking sites and they are also similar to the
demography of the site maintainers of FOSEE.

Skeletonz's developer is amix.dk who is a well known python dev (Plurk
project etc.,)

And of course there is Zine whose administrative interface is closely
modeled after wordpress to help people
transition over from WP.

Our own Jace uses it to power his blog - http://jace.zaiki.in
The source for some of his improvements  can be found here :
http://bitbucket.org/jace

Zine is also very easy to template because it uses JInja (a templating
language inspired by Django's templating).

MoinMoin is a good candidate too, if you know how to create new
templates and hide the "wiki" artefacts like navigation elements.

There are more, let me know what are the parameters you are using to
choose your own ;)
