Re: New LilyPond website

[John Roper]

OK. This was an idea that I had that I thought I'd share with you. My overall plan was that the website looks old and could use a redesign. I did it in WordPress because that is what I thought would be easiest for you, especially for things like the news and blog. Technically we could get a site that looks like this on almost any static site generator.

One point that hasn't been raised in *this* thread is that using any CMS
on the donated web space we have is out of question. Anyone wanting to
have a WordPress site (or anything else) would have to find a hosting
solution for this - and would probably also be responsible for keeping
that safe and running.

I personally would also be happy to have the website separate from the
docs, so it can be adapting to new ideas more easily. But I would much
more like to see it created by a static site generator, in a system
where the content can be managed as a Git repository.

This doesn't say *anything* about the visual aspect of the current
proposal, though.
