IMO, no.  I just don't want to spend time chasing down the IP of all of
the bits of these themes.  They may say they are MIT, but who knows about
some font or css they've borrowed from somewhere.  I think I've done a
pretty good replication of the Royale Website header and footer.  If we
can agree on what Carlos proposes or my suggested changes to it, I think I
can have it ready in a couple of hours and then we can just produce
content instead of providing more surface for IP nitpickers.  I keep
hoping we will find a simple HTML implementation of what we want so we can
replicate parts of it across all of our web pages, from royale.a.o to
royale-docs to asdoc and the TryItNow app.  If we keep using different
themes, we have to try to reproduce the commonality in each of those
themes.

Jekyll was designed for blogs.  Again, I think I can take a proposal from
Carlos and get it working in a couple of hours.

Keep it simple.  Less process, more content.  We can get fancy later.

My 2 cents,
