Keep in mind that there is more to this than a website design (though it is
important). The "content strategy" part of it often gets swallowed. There
is a big difference between a site that has lorem ipsum text and one that
really resonates because the right content is in the right places. IMO,
that's what a designer can help you achieve that buying an off the shelf
site cannot.
...so it's reasonable to start with an off the shelf design (likely an open
source or CC design), but you'll still need someone to drive the overall
project, and setup a workflow for maintaining it. As I've said often w/ the
Arquillian site, the website is part of the source code of the project.

That's a pretty good idea, there are some nice (and cheap) design

there.
We still have the jboss.org styling issue though (we're supposed to use
the jboss.org header etc), what are we going to do with that?
