&gt; Hi everyone,<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; As I&#39;m slowly working on hammering many of the necessary nails int=
o the coffin of our old Trac, I thought I&#39;d ask for some help in design=
ing a new website.<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; My general idea is this: most of the Trac content will be migrated to =
hosted services in the future, including the wiki. However, it would be nic=
e to still have a landing page / index on <a href=3D"http://midnight-comman=
der.org" rel=3D"noreferrer" target=3D"_blank">midnight-commander.org</a> .<=
br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; In terms of requirements, I can think of the following:<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; * Ideally clean and light design (think <a href=3D"http://terminalcss.=
xyz" rel=3D"noreferrer" target=3D"_blank">terminalcss.xyz</a>), accessible =
and browsable with both text mode / legacy browsers and modern software.<br=
>
&gt; <br>
&gt; * The content should be similar to the current main page. I think it w=
ould be best to split it into several pages, but I wouldn&#39;t be complete=
ly against the idea of scrollable sections. As an example of some recent si=
tes that caught my eye as being nice in terms of layout, structure and cont=
ent, I can mention the new PCRE2 homepage: <a href=3D"https://pcre2project.=
github.io/pcre2/" rel=3D"noreferrer" target=3D"_blank">https://pcre2project=
.github.io/pcre2/</a> .<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; * The implementation should be HTML5, using some static generator - ma=
ybe hugo or mkdocs?<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; * There should be room for an AdSense plug.<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; Let me know if you can contribute. Ideally, if you have any questions,=
 we can discuss that on the list, and then eventually you post your work as=
 a GitHub repository / GitHub pages and we can fork it into our organizatio=
n when it&#39;s time to move.<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; Thanks in advance if anyone gets back to me...<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; All the best,<br>
