I guess another possibility we can consider, at least as an interim step, is to host the static site on our existing server. This would at-least allow us to get the new site up quickly, but of course it wouldn't solve the headache of having to pay for and administer our own web server. There may be an easy way here to solve the internationalization problem without relying on JavaScript.

My apologies for the lack of update on the website, the past three weeks I've been working 60+ hours a week preparing for a trade show. At this point I consider the hosting platform to a blocker for completing the website redesign. Shall I proceed for the moment assuming that we're using github pages? If we abandon github pages, that frees me to identify and select a more i18n friendly site generator, so I haven't put much more work into the Jekyll version. At present the Jekyll version's English translation is effectively complete, however I do think some content curation will be necessary to better fit the new format.
