Website

It would be nice if the haskell-distributed organisation had a sexy looking web site that links off to CH and -platform and so on.

If we use Jekyll and github pages for this, then we'd have the benefit a nice blog engine to boot. I'm inclined to use the same theme as http://lens.github.com/, for which the Jekyll sources are at https://github.com/lens/lens.github.com. I'll have to contact the author to check for copyright details on the theme and strip out any images and such things that aren't in the public domain.

If we do this, then I'll subsume http://haskell-distributed.github.com/distributed-process-platform/ into the new site (and just provide a link) and maintain all CH related stuff on the new site.

I'm not sure, BTW, what permissions are required to configure a github pages site for this organisation. I suspect I don't have the access rights, although I do have permission to fork the lens website repo to this org, though I don't really want to do that as I'd rather hack out the theme and set up the initial content first.

Start by reviewing the lens.github.com Jekyll sources and the existing distributed-process-platform site. Confirm the GitHub Pages permissions for the organisation and the theme's copyright requirements. Done means a new site is published with links to Cloud Haskell and the platform, with the existing platform content represented by a link and Cloud Haskell material maintained there.
