Eric,

Thanks so much for the reply. You raise many of the questions that I
myself have been wondering about recently.

I given my initial brainstorming further thought, and I think I'll
start simply---i.e., ability to generate a feed from 1st level DONE
headlines on a single page. More than that seems unnecessarily complex
at the moment, given the general interest in dynamic websites that use
org-mode files for their data.

This would be incredible. Ikiwiki (written in Perl) comes to mind as
flat-file wiki that stores revisions in git or subversion.

I look forward to hearing what others have to say about these
questions.
