WebMe 0.4
Just launched WebMe 0.4. This is very easy to use app for converting a project’s README file into a fancy project website. Use the site as is or use it as a starting point for building a better site. It supports a number of features including a pluggable template system. Check it out. Also, for a short time there’s a small bounty for new templates that make the current lot look like amateur hour.

You lost me here: “WebMe is a POM-based project. You first should make sure you have a reasonablly complete set of meta/ entries setup for your project. See proutils.github.com/pom for more information.”
I’ve expanded on the that part of the docs to make it more clear. It really only means that WebMe looks for entries in the meta/ or .meta/ directory to provide information about the project. The WebMe templates use these entries to provide a richer website.
Visiting the WebMe sites renders one question: Does it automagically add google adverts linked to your account for you to profit?
Damn, couldn’t even get one ad through ;)
No, actually the default is just a holdover. WebMe has evolved from a tool for my personal use and that default was convenient for me. But you can change it via a config option. I’m currently cleaning up config options, which will be the main improvement in the next release (I will release soon). That includes getting rid of the default ad.
WebMe is still in fairly early development (hence 0.4 version number).
For the moment, you can use your own advertisement by putting the markup in “{site,website,web}/assets/includes/advert.html”, or to have no ad, then in “.config/webme/options.yml” add an entry ‘advert: false’. That should take care of it.
Went ahead and release what I had so far. Verison 0.5 adds Tilt support for rendering READMEs, removes default ad, adds an option to force the README type and makes some other small improvements.
