Glad you like it!

Yes, you can view markdown on github and also create pull requests
with the github user interface - almost forgot about that. So
contributing would be _that_ simple!

and 1GB installation, as you mentioned.

I used Jekyll because I don't know Haskell (I know a bit, but not
enough) and I can see that haskell puts off a lot of people just
because it is different. Using Jekyll was just a sound decision. It is
maintained, really easy to extend and there's a load of documentation
on how to use it, build with travis etc etc etc. Everything is just
_there_ and you just have to plug parts together, you know?
