This has always been the case.

AFAICT if you want to write content, then use of Jekyll means you have to
write in Markdown.  You are going to have to be pretty average to find
Markdown a high bar:-).

If you want to build the site you will need a working Jekyll install,
which might be trickier.

The actual upload to SF is straightforward, but you need permission.  I
have looked at the SF permissions, and remain confused.  However if
winterime is able to upload (which is good) David should have the same
permissions.  David, have you tried:

  sftp $USERNAME,free...@web.sf.net

with your SF username and credentials?


Anyway... generally with respect to the website I really do not have a
many strong opinion about how or what it looks like.  I am delighted
people are working on it again, and I am trying to help but mostly keep
out of the way.  What I do care about is that it be low maintenance
because as Jonathan rightly reminds us above, people leave.  However I do
not share Jonathan's enthusiasm for Wordpress... one CMS debacle was
enough.

Cheers,
Mike Pope
