That's correct. I've asked project owners to move their site maintenance to
GitLab; not all have found the time or inclination to do that and one or
two pointed out that the new way of working would pose a problem for them.
The current setup is to return pages from /project/*/public_html when that
exists or to serve the pages from <project>-site alternatively.

The updated OOK doc pages get loaded as expected (as you can check).

Yes, that's how it works (from the top directory, that is). The name of the
repository/project should be with-context-site. The text after the
"script:" key can be any command that needs to be executed in order to
produce a top-level directory named "public".

No problem. You're welcome. In case of more questions, don't hesitate to
ask!

We could look at having Docker images with the various CL implementations,
which would allow you to choose your favorate implementation of the day.
Not sure how easy it would be to make it available for CMUCL though.
