It is being worked on.

The current content is on MediaWiki, and the problem that we had with
MediaWiki is that keeping it open meant that someone had to be on call to
remove spam, hack attempts and plain misinformation being added to the
site.   So since we migrated the contents, it has remained closed.

It is suboptimal.

So we are converting the data to some text format and rendering it
statically, and when this is all said and done, it will live on GitHub,
where we can more easily deal with the above problems.
