Yes, there is a problem here: only users with push access can clone for now (and pull and push.) I think Jason is not online this week-end, so we will have to live with it.

Re: [O] [OT] Current website not very attractive
how would you improve it? I will probably make Worg Wikipedia-like 1. Quick navigation to one side. 2. TOC on top and bounded. 3. A header bar, maybe. 4. A bigger font. One can start with pedia.css provided by Emacswiki. I have followed this trail - Org as a Wiki and a personal information portal - a bit for last few weeks. If Wiki-like style is not agreeable one can go with a style like this: http://mah.everybody.org/books/. There is some simple understated elegance to that page that is quite appealing. It is the presence of margins on either side that makes the page look solemn and respectable. --
