  15 The website is @emph{not} written directly in HTML;
  16 instead, the source is Texinfo, which is then generated into HTML,
  17 PDF, and Info formats.  The sources are
  18
  19 @verbatim
  20 Documentation/web.texi

  24 Unless otherwise specified, follow the instructions and policies
  25 given in @ref{Documentation work}.  That chapter also contains a
  26 quick introduction to Texinfo; consulting an external Texinfo
  27 manual should be not necessary.

  54 The website is generated hourly by user @code{graham} the host
  55 @code{lilypond.org}.  For security reasons, we do not use the
  56 makefiles and scripts directly from git; copies of the relevant
  57 scripts are examined and copied to
  58 @code{~graham/lilypond/trusted-scripts/}

 119 To reduce the CPU burden on the shared host (as well as some
 120 security concerns), the @file{Documentation/pictures/} and
 121 @file{Documentation/web/ly-examples/} directories are @strong{not}
 122 compiled.  If you modify any files in those directories, a user in
 123 the @code{lilypond} group must upload them to @file{~graham/media}
 124 on the host.
 125
