Speaking for myself as an international tax lawyer, I have been banging my head against Github and bleeding heavily. I can see enormous benefit for myself and my work. If I can start with a static page HTML to publish an existing 150-page book, I'd be thrilled. I have every tax treaty as HTML files and I'd love to get that out of Wordpress and into a static site hosted on Github or elsewhere. The Github help pages and all the random blog posts are largely gibberish. And I'm pretty nerdy -- starting with ham radio as a high school kid, Kaypro computer in 1982, building sites by hand pre-Wordpress. I defy anyone wanting to set up a simple Jekyll blog on Github pages to do so without swearing and throwing a shoe across the room. End of rant. I will be banging my head against the wall again tonight.
