I believe they are reasonably recent, as best I remember there havn't
been many website source changes.  If you have an improved version you
can always make a pull request.

My understanding was that asciidoc.org is only a DNS entry which I
thought points to the github pages, not the old website, thats why
stuff is missing if its not in the Asciidoc repository.  But I may be
confused.

@Dan, whats the status of asciidoc.org?

Asciidoc Python is entirely contributions, somebody made the gh-pages
files from whats in the repository, but there are no "regular
maintainers" to make corrections not provided by contributors.
