Nvu is an excellent, free, open-source HTML editor with a very good
WYSIWYG mode.  Users can publish updates to the site directly from
Nvu.

http://nvu.com

A non-technical but reasonably intelligent user can learn to use Nvu
quickly; if they can handle a word processor, they can handle Nvu. 
You'll need to give them a little training on how to upload the file
within Nvu once they update it; that's about it.
