Recently I ran across and old article from Phil Haack, about moving his blog to Jekyll using GitHub. And I realized that this is (or might be?) a perfect solution for managing content about the FlightNode project (though it will not be part of the platform itself).

There is a lot of work to do in terms of getting content up and getting it formatted. This is just the start of getting the framework going, so that I can get all the text and pictures out of my head and into documentation that other team members can use.

• Run Jekyll on Windows Doesn’t actually work for me, I get a gcc build error. Will probably switch to starting up a Vagrant box with Ubuntu.
