Good point. I might be forgetting something, but as is:

- No need for database server.

- Passive: the web server runs the site when it is accessed. I can run
  twelve dozens instances in the same server if they are accessed
  rarely.

- Low-level: data is in elementary format in plain files.

- Simple: install the files in one or two directories.

- Helpful editor: buttons for people who do not know the markup language
  by heart.

Very interesting. It seems it only fails for the last point. But maybe
it can be added easily, after all buttons like that run on client-side.

The look-and-feel seems a bit basic too, but it can probably be changed.

Thanks for the suggestion, worth considering.
