Resolution: Won't Fix
Github uses jekyll to generate user/project pages. It is a very useful feature, because you can have your personal/project blog and its source in your repository, and posting to it is as simple as adding a new text file (in markdown/textile).
In order for Bitbucket to host a user page (username.bitbucket.org), the file index.html has to be in the root directory of the repository. So if one wants to create a similar solution on Bitbucket, one has to generate the site with jekyll every time before posting, and even so, jekyll has to be modified, because the original version cannot manage a configuration where the jekyll source directory (eg. '/jekyll' is inside the desination directory (where index.html will be, '/'
.
It would be very nice if a simple solution could be used, just like in Github.
