Your design skills are remarkable at reproducing the same website!

This is really cool, thanks for doing this and making it open like this!

I don't know ikiwiki that well, but I imagine there is a way (probably
via a git post-commit hook) to email changes that have been pushed. This
might be a good way to keep up with what people are changing on the
site, although sending it to this list might be too much, perhaps
another mailing list for those gluttons who would like to see this?
