I get the feeling that Pelican would provide a "less custom" approach, and it seems to support rst out of the box.

Have you looked into Pelican and found it to be inappropriate to your needs? Right now, I'm thinking creating a Leo outline that integrates with pelican and github pages could be the right approach.

I just prefer tighter control. Pelican seems a bit too "heavy" for what I do with my sites, but it could be perfect for this sort of thing!
Pelican:

Reg. Heroku vs GH-pages - Heroku free tier has the problem of having few secs "spin up" delay unless it gets hits regularly, while IIUC gh pages are serving instantly at all times.

That may be true for larger apps, i.e. ones with databases... I've never once noticed it with my blog, and that has extremely humble traffic. GH pages is certainly viable and easy to use, though. It's a good choice. :)

    My blog, at http://blog.suspended-chord.info/, is hosted with
    Heroku's free hosting tier.  It runs on a modified version of toto
    (official: http://cloudhead.io/toto, my version:
    https://github.com/gatesphere/toto), which is a ruby-based static
    site generator.  All articles are simple markdown files (which was
    actually the reason behind my markdown_support branch -- I wanted
    to blog in Leo), and you publish them by simply pushing a commit
    to Heroku.  As an added twist, all resources/downloads/source code
    snippets are stored on github, meaning my blog is completely
    hosted in the cloud, for free.

    I'm working on making a nicer version of a homebrew python static
    site generator that I used for my main webpages and a few other
    projects.  It's essentially the same idea, with markdown-based
    articles, but I much prefer the jinja2 template engine that I'm
    using with it.

    Anyway, it's a fun little system.  I could totally set one up and
hand out git credentials if someone wants to buy a domain name. Next week sometime I should be able to swing it, if people want to
    go this route.

    :)

    Where do you host the blog?

    Can you compare your system e.g. with using Jekyll and GitHub pages?

    My experience is that Wordpress and Blogger suck for technical
    blogs (we want to do version control etc), and Jekyll and GH
    pages could be one option for this.

    Aside from hosting, one technical comms problem we need to solve
    is how to show leo tree snippets in a readable fashion (optimally
    with syntax highlight), and make it convenient to do (so everyone
    can stick to that convention, and/or we can integrate support for
    that in the blog engine)

        I think this is a great idea.

        As a side note, my blog is maintained completely by Leo --
        blog engine code and all!

        do better attach a mini leo file when introduce some tips of
        leo?

        And maybe the posts of blog should be labeled with level of
        difficulties?

            All it needs is someone to create it.

            I'd expect it should be Edward, unless in the spirit of
            delegation someone steps up to be the 'Keeper of the
            LeoBlog'

            Then, either issue permissions, or agree that submissions
            go through the Keeper.
