Do we need fancy content?

I was thinking to just use a plain text message explaining what is
going on there.

--------

There is also the option to host in Azure. Twisted has $120 each month
for Azure services... so there will be no extra payment.

Let me know if you want/need access to the Twisted Azure subscription.

Azure Blob does not have a "default page"...so you need to set up a
CDN to serve a static page out of a container.

There is one easy way to create a site from a GitHub repo with Azure
App Service:
