Awesome in some kind of retro way, since this a thing that C "never" has had in my experience, it being older (by far) than the web and the idea that new programming languages need to be promoted/anchored to a web site.

I couldn't see which person(s) and/or organizations are behind the site though, I feel that should be made easier to find if it's on there at all, else added.

Thanks!
