The website of a distro, especially such complex, is not a blog and is
not a news list. It isn't a 3-pages homesite with several updates once a
year as well.
It's a complex (in structure -- think of many sections, subsections and
syntax and view of >500 pages) thing that is needed to be structured
properly. Wiki engine (especially one that conforms any good standard
-- so it'll be easy to migrate to any other wiki if needed) provides a
lot of useful features like automatic linking, indexes, menu
generation, orphaned and wanted pages, backlinks and so on. And it is
still a consistent site with single auth (captcha-supported as well),
pages' preview, search and history.
And it's always easy to support something that is a standard. If some
product is becoming dead -- no problem to migrate to something that is
actively developed and conforms the same standard.
