3. Ruby on Rails (or Django or any other web framework that dynamically builds a server response) would be a terrible choice for a static website. It would be nothing but overhead for no benefit. Nothing on dlang.org <http://dlang.org> is dynamically generated, nothing talks to a database (nor should it). The site can and should be generated from some simple markup language. The end result should be HTML, CSS, JS and image files that are then just served by the simplest of servers.
Why not? We're limiting our self here. Someone talked about adding comments to the documentation, like PHP has. Or do you want to use a database that JavaScript can talk to directly, to avoid server side scripts?
