Why the new website?

See: https://github.com/nodejs/nodejs.org/issues/581

That issue, mentions these will get moved to this repo:

@mikeal Is the intention of this site to be a standalone site (i.e.: has it's own landing page)? or a site that is interwoven with the current site? (like the design will be the same as https://nodejs.org and people won't really even know they are in the microsite)

Has there been a proposal/discussion of the architecture of this setup with @nodejs/build, @nodejs/website, etc?

Is this repo maintained by @nodejs/website WG?

If these discussions have already happened, please link them here so future visitors can follow along.

https://github.com/nodejs/nodejs.org/blob/master/GOVERNANCE.md#working-group would indicate YES to this. I'm just looking to make it explicit.

Happy to help out in any way I can, especially with the Keystone implementation details. @mxstbr is on board to help as well (another core Keystone contributor). Also respectful that there's an established website WG and process in place, and don't want to interfere with project governance.

If there's a spec / guide to how it should work / look etc, we can step up and help get that up and running, or if someone from the website WG wants to lead the implementation then we will happily give support.

At first my instinct was to add that team as admin of the repo but after thinking about it I wonder if that is a good idea. It's a pretty different toolchain and may draw a different set of contributors. Regardless, the governance and contribution structure should be the same as the website even if the actual list of committers is different.
