[TriLUG] Preview of new TriLUG website

[Ken MacKenzie via TriLUG]

The irony of it all is not missed.

Truly the next thing I do as I tire of dealing with the static site
generator is
just deal with a "CouchApp" as a CMS. In other words some simple jquery
front
end consuming a couch DB. Maybe with a simple python app to work with the
data
in the CouchDB easier than editing directly in Futon.
