Significant updates to the v3 documentation is direly needed for sure.

The content of the upcoming website at v3.xenomai.org is maintained in a
git tree, which is now public. This is a Hugo generated (static) site
using the 'learn' theme, see [2][3]. Likewise for Xenomai 4/evl at
v4.xenomai.org, content available as a git tree from [4].

The workflow is pretty simple:

- apt/dnf install the 'hugo' package
- git clone the website repo
- make changes to $repo/content/*

hugo provides a local web server [5] serving the pages in $repo to a
local browser, which automatically renders any update live:

- cd $repo
- hugo server

The website should be accessible from localhost:1313.

Contributions are welcome, patches should be sent to this list.
