Why do we need CircleCI here? I am actually not sure what the issue is, but
here's the site rendered through gh-pages on my fork of your repo:

http://arokem.github.io/nipy-jekyll/

I did also add a Gemfile to the repo, and that might matter: I believe
Github pages serves jekyll through a call to "bundle exec jekyll serve"
(see here: https://help.github.com/articles/using-jekyll-with-pages/).

One comment about the content: I would prefer to have a front page that
just states what this thing is, and the projects on a separate page. I
would like for it to be *super* easy to add projects. The whole idea is
that the NIPY community is not a static list of projects, but an
ever-evolving ecosystem.

Cheers,

Ariel
