Hi all,

I just created a new 11ty branch in the apache/royale-website repo, and I
added the source files for the static site that I built with Eleventy.

https://github.com/apache/royale-website/tree/11ty

I made it so that Github Actions builds the site from source and deploys
the output to the asf-staging branch. In the asf-staging branch, I added an
.asf.yaml file, which currently deploys every new commit at the following
staging URL:

https://royale-11ty.staged.apache.org/

It would be a relatively easy change to configure this repo to deploy to
the production royale.apache.org website instead.

I feel that it's better for Royale's future to have an updated website
working sooner rather than later. I propose that we move forward with what
we have now, instead of waiting any longer to migrate to Pelican. I have
nothing against Pelican, and I'm totally okay with using it in the future.
I simply think that it's better to replace the old website with
**anything** that we can update properly, since the old website doesn't
even mention the newest two Royale SDK releases.

Does anyone object to moving forward with the Elventy-based site for now?
