How did you get the pages? Is there a "zip" file available from IBM.
Or did you some some method to "clone" the actual site?

What I would _love_ is for IBM to maintain the site in such a way as
to allow others to easily "clone" it, as well as "freshen" their
"clone". OK, what I would like is a standard git repository.

IMO, it is excellent. Of course, all I can compare it with is
CA-Endevor, which makes me shudder, but z/OS SCMs tend to be a bit
primitive compared to what I use on Linux. At least, in my
not-so-humble opinion.
