I suspect that Github Pages won't work, we'll exceed or be close to exceeding both the 1 GB site size limit and the 100 GB/month bandwidth limit [1]. Rough bandwidth estimate (using page size from http://scipy.github.io/ devdocs/ and Alexa stats): 2 million visits per month, 2.5 page views per visit, 5 kb/page = 25 GB/month (html). Add to that pdf docs, which are ~20 MB in size: if only a small fraction of visitors download those, we'll be at >100 GB. No matter where we go, we can likely reduce the endpoint bandwidth requirements substantially by putting something like cloudflare's free tier in front. That doesn't help for the actual disk size though of course... -n
