[Playlist] We need to reset the site

[Lucas Gonze]

We are live with the rad new styling, markup, and production process. Over
the weekend Evan Boehs and Ralph Giles finished debugging the new version
of the XSPF.org web site designed by Tess Gadwa.

It's a big leap forward. Readability and visual design are way up. The
markup and content generator are dramatically better than the old stuff. We
can now iterate faster with higher quality.

We left some obvious rough edges in pushing what we have now - fixes are
coming soon. I have updated the About document to include these
improvements (
https://gitlab.xiph.org/xiph/xspf-website/-/blob/main/_pages/about.md), but
haven't pushed yet. Future improvements are at
https://gitlab.xiph.org/xiph/xspf-website/-/issues/ .
