Current web site has certain purely technical issues that 
switching to more dynamic vibe.d based implementation will help 
to deal with. Even if design doesn't change a single bit it is a 
welcome and much needed change. Because of that starting with 
technical stuff makes perfect sense.

Stuff you care about is marketing stuff. It is only partially 
relevant to informational usability concerns that are of primary 
interest to existing language users.
