Jekyll:

• _site: contains the actual website code; auto-generated by running jekyll build
• _layouts: contains Jekyll layouts to be applied to webfiles
• _includes: code snippets that Jekyll pastes into webfiles

To build the website, run $ make. The Makefile will run the python scripts if necessary and build Jekyll.

Jekyll output should not be committed to this repository, only source code.

This repository is now public, since we have permission to use the audio files.
