It was, but I think it should not be anymore. One advantage of having a separate org-web.git repo is to let people contribute to the website without having to grant them push access to the repository. > If removed from the repository this sends a strong message > (intentionally?) that it is not.

Simply removing ORGWEBPAGE/ is simpler. Thanks for insisting on Bernt's point about git history -- this is something I overlooked while planning this change. Best, -- Bastien
