Incidentally, I was looking at the other problem of is-mirage-broken being out 
of date on the live website:

https://github.com/mirage/mirage-www/issues/374

Rather than fixing this directly, I'm taking the opportunity to rearchitect the 
website to use Irmin, since Thomas has largely got this working now.  The new 
model will involve the website cloning all of its data sources at unikernel 
compile time:

- the templates from mirage/mirage-www.git
- the Markdown from mirage/mirage-www.wiki.git
- the is-mirage-broken data from mirage/is-mirage-broken.git
- the changelog from the (as yet uncreated) mirage/megamirage.wiki.git (which 
aggregates all the repositories)

This way, asynchronous jobs can update their relevant repositories, and the 
Mirage website just glues them together via Irmin queries.  One thing missing 
is a connector between the static website generation and Irmin, which I'm 
hopeful we can derive from Thomas Leonard and David Sheets' recent work.  In 
particular, I would love to hook up the website with live updates whenever 
anything is pushed to the various data sources, which involves grabbing the 
relevant Cuekeeper code.
