Static Site Generator Community Meeting (March 12)

[Justin Obara]

Thanks Colin. Could you also add the reasoning behind the node.js criteria. You were talking about this at the meeting today but some audio issue made it hard to get all the details. 

Avtar could you expand on the work flow section of the wiki page. It would be helpful to know more about what requirements you'd have for VM provisioning and etc. 

Thanks
Justin

One of my hopes is that using a static site generator will make it easier for Avtar to allow people to spin up VMs and support their own sites on our cloud.
