AIDA/Web apps/websites are running as pure Smalltalk web presence, from 
dynamic to static content, movies included. No Apache needed, Swazoo as 
integral part of Aida is there to serve directly to the web.

 From your list below we are covering out of the box now all except 
webshop. Maybe not yet perfectly but we are on the way there. See SPM 
(Squeak Project Manager) for instance, this is Trac like portal for your 
project, covering from Wiki, bug/issue tracking to code repository 
access. See for example the SPM for Aida/Scribo CMS http://scribo.aidaweb.si

Best regards
Janko
