I too have a home written scripts. I use them on 4 different web sites for photo albums. If you like it I can send it to you. You can view how it looks here.
I think the fundamental thing that my users need is the ability to upload photographs from remote places (usually internet cafes or hotels with wifi). Apart from that a basically static site would be fine I suspect. They'd be happy enough to have the site update with new images once a day or so.
You could setup an FTP server and then use cron to automatically run a script regularly to autogenerate the static gallery and publish it on a webserver, using Brett or nev's scripts.
Assuming your users would be comfortable using FTP ...
It's a possibility, it would certainly simplify maintenance compared with gallery2.
