I think if you want to take a stab at it, Carlos, that would be great! You can see how the website currently works by looking at:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/cordova/site/README.md I've created https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-3997 to track this and assigned it to you. If you can get a prototype going, maybe just post a diff of your changes via "svn diff" and attach it to the JIRA ticket. I think timeline-wise, as soon as it gets done and we have a blog post written, we can ship it! :) On Mon, Jun 24, 2013 at 8:27 PM, Carlos Santana <csantan...@gmail.com>wrote: > I took a look today at JekyII and got excited at the simplicity. > > I love simple solutions to simple problems. > > Should we try to launch a new site/blog for 3.0 time frame? > > How can I help?
