Good idea. I already experimented with a footer on the front page of
each subdomain (e.g. at https://video.scheme.org/) but it would be
better to have it on all pages.
The footer could state the license and link to the file on GitHub. And
also link to the place where the content is discussed (mailing list,
github issues, etc.)
