Discussing and helping with openlilylib.org relaunch

[Urs Liska]

Now it is finally time to review https://openlilylib.org and give it a
new life. The site that is currently online is completely out of date,
not only visually and technically, but above all conceptually. What it
should become is a rather small site about openLilyLib as what its core
intends to be: a library infrastructure. So I'm going to throw out all
the secondary projects that aren't directly related to that idea.

In addition I want to prepare a structure for presenting package
documentation which will go to subdomains like (non-existing)
https://scholarly.openlilylib.org.

I would be happy about any assistance with this project because I
*could* do it alone but a) I don't have sufficient time to work my way
through all the obstacles and b) of course when doing something like
this with a few people chances to succeed and finish are significantly
higher ...

The main site will have a general introduction to openLilyLib and a
catalog of packages that are considered members of the openLilyLib
family and that are documented on such subdomains.

I want to create the main site and the doc sites using Bootstrap as
statically served pages. The main site *could* be done hand-written but
I would prefer finding the appropriate static site builder to create it
from Markdown files and assets. The documentation subpages of course
*have* to be generated through a builder, and I would very much prefer
one written in Python, because that's what I know best and because I
expect to use python-ly for several aspects of generating the package
documentation pages.

So the first step is creating a new website for the main site, the
second designing a template structure and design for the package docs.
Building a script for generating package documentation will be a third
step that we'll hopefully start doing as well, but in a way it's
independent from the first steps. This will be a tool that can be run
against any single oll-compliant package and create a self-contained
website that is usable as a "child" to openlilylib.org (that is, a
"Home" link to openlilylib.org will be the exception to the
self-containedness).

So as said I'd be happy about anyone approaching me who
- is interested in openLilyLib and
- knows
  - Bootstrap
  - LESS
  - the visual part of web design
  - (Python based) static site builders
  or any usable subset thereof.

Best
