No arguments to any points that you made; That is why I was brought up that 
topic very gently.  I respect your view, the technical rationale and comments.

It is just that right now, we have 3 websites including Ozone (Plug: 
https://hadoop.apache.org/ozone/ )
If it ended up being Hugo, it would be easier for someone like me to contribute 
to Yetus websites too. 

I hope at least some of the Hadoop committers has invested time and energy on 
Hugo already, and we could leverage that too.

Thanks
Anu

        The ‘why' was apparently lost. :(  Getting slightly off-topic:
    
    Pre-Hugo:
    
    ant + site source repo
    mvn site + source repo
    
    Post-Hugo:
    
    hugo + site source repo
    mvn site + source repo
    
    It could have been:
    
    mvn site + source repo
    
        Hadoop already had a static site generator that was part of it’s core 
and without major work wasn’t going to go away.  There was little value in just 
swapping out ant (which most of the committers have a small grasp of) for hugo 
(which maybe 3 people understood) just to get updated graphics and layout when 
there could have been a major process improvement with updated graphics and 
layout and without a bunch of people having to learn new stuff.
