> for non-techy people I think it's still a big jump in terms of just opening up a tumblr blog

True, but that's not the audience anyways. The idea is that if you (as a web developer) want to make a portfolio site for a customer you could use lektor instead of wordpress or something like this. I generally always prefer static website generators for my own work but I cannot give it to a non technical person to fill with content. That's what motivated it.

But nobody needs to switch for anything. It's just another tool in the shed :)
