Hi all it is not an entirely fair statement. For instance, I put quite some time on showing that it was possible to use Ikiwiki, and therefore Git. Sure, that meant not only leaving CVS, but also leaving WML, so I understand that it was not what people expected, but yes, sometimes people have backed their proposals with real work ! https://lists.debian.org/debian-www/2010/08/msg00049.html The demo site is unfortunately gone, but trust me, it was looking quite close to the original :) The main reasons why I did not promote this further were a) it was greeted by a Great Silence, b) Git was still quite controversial at the time, c) the PO plugin of Ikiwiki had hiccups, and of course d) the proposal to quit using WML was definitely unpopular.
