I played a bit with wordpress and drupal, both would even work on
SourceForge. Here's a quick drupal install where I started rebuilding
the liballeg.org layout:

http://lland.sourceforge.net/

Anyone can register and then click on "Create Content" or "Administer"
to try and add or modify pages (using MarkDown syntax). I don't think
copying over the old content makes sense. But maybe it's a better
alternative for the upcoming allegro5.org to use some kind of content
management system (anyone knows of better/easier to use ones?) instead
of SVN and allegro-www..
