Right. My mistake :)

No worries. The idea was to move the useful parts to guix-artwork on
gnu.org.
To be honest, when I started this version of the website I was just
motivated on implementing the designs and exploring a way to organize
modules in a haunt website so that data, builders and templates were
separated. But I was not very interested in dealing with git workflows,
and strict commit messages. Sorry about that :)
So, what do we do? Create a branch on guix-artwork and drop these files
there to complete what is missing? I don't know...
