Hi. An other reader interested in the topic got it right.
https://gitlab.com/7dnz/org-weblog/-/issues/1
We had a few words by email last year. CCing him.

Was your intent really to write that ?
Because you well know a personal config file is something else.

Everybody is free to ask, preferably nicely, if someone else is
willing to license or re-license code. This is an open source community
after all and source is open indeed.

Saw the presentation at the last Emacs conf'.
The common ground is a static site generator for Emacs+org
but the spirit is different.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not looking for inspiration and I already wrote
and discussed requirements and specifications for such a project.
As I said /supra/ I don't mind letting it the current state.

Have I some energy and motivation left, I would do so. But Since I'm
not trying to shine among the community — and I'm not saying it's a bad
thing, I prefer to share raw materials for learning purposes rather
than go through one more standard procedure in the era of total
bureaucracy. I was just demonstrating what, IMHO, works smooth for
online documentation.
