Please don't implement this for now. The planned GSOC project concerning the PTS is likely to change this initial design decision of having almost only static content. High availability is important for the PTS because it is a central part of the communication infrastructure too, and that can't be done with static.d.o. So we should probably investigate other ways to make it fault tolerant rather than a simple redundancy of static HTML pages.
