AFAICT d-p-l.org doesn't use it, so I guess the repo is being pulled to another server? As the content is (I think?) entirely static, GH hosting would be easier, more maintainable, and cheaper. And no out-of-sync issues -- I saw a thread today with someone complaining the site hadn't been pulled from GH ... For the main site: while I've not used it, I hear GH's inbuilt support for Jekyll <https://github.com/mojombo/jekyll>, a static site generator, is great. It's pretty well recognized<https://github.com/mojombo/jekyll/wiki/sites>, completely customizable, and I suspect well within our requirements. Some examples of sites built on it: http://joelbradbury.net/ http://domain51.com/ http://jimeh.me/ http://neilang.com/ Of course, we don't have to use Jekyll, and can roll our own static site.
