The discussion back then was about adding a CMS for more timely updates, 
as that was the other problem of the website.

But while a CMS might be slightly easier (but be a drag in maintenance), 
adding new items to the site is not THAT hard, ergo, the problem is in 
the content generation, not the website.

It is the same problem with the documentation (as in contributions from 
people other than you and few contributors like Don), the tools are 
always blamed, but the real problem is that nobody really bothers.
