Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
In #1044678: alien platform support and #1044692: wordpress backend we talk about deploying full non-Drupal CMS applications. How about we start with just static HTML? Just write the vhosts and such.
With #1132488: Provide SFTP access to sites, #1132512: [meta] Manage databases as separate entities and #1132526: Configure MySQL front-end in place, we would be able to offer rudimentary generic web-hosting. We could then probably install Wordpress, Joomla, Spip (even Drupal!) though not with all the Aegir goodness we've come to love.

I think this would basically require re-factoring all the Drupal specific stuff out into a service, so that a static site just wouldn't implement that service.
