Hi Sammie,
Current work on the CLnet site is taking place at this repository: https://gitlab.common-lisp.net/clo/cl-site
The page on cl-foundation.org that you found is a very old draft that was left online for some reason.
Our priority right now is to finish coding the static site generator in Lisp. Please see my WIP merge request for the status of this and to learn how you can help if you'd like :)
Once the static site generator is completed in Lisp, we should be able to remove the Ruby dependency. The current CLnet is generated with Ruby. Hope this clears it up.

This may not be the way comments should be made, but I did not want cause any issues by doing stuff on the "https://mailman.common-lisp.net/listinfo/clo-devel " page that would cause me to be yanked from this thread in case I were an actual member.
I tried to flow through the github to follow the messages thread-paths to see where things were going with regards to " https://common-lisp.net/ " and the email I received "Re: 2018 Site Redesign Proposal". I saw a site "http://www.cl-foundation.org/clnet/index.html " which had a look alike the email attachment.

The comment of removing Ruby dependencies caught my attention, and also generating the site from Lisp was an eye opener.
So Cheryl, when you move over the front-end, the maintainers will continue?

Yes, that's right, I recall it now. I'll move the front-end work over and pick up where we left off there. Sorry for my confusion.

Indeed for me it is a higher priority to remove the Ruby dependency and be able to generate the site from Lisp than it is to have a new site.
