There isn't a great deal of point in looking at the date on the website if you can look at your local copy of the book.
As to the health of the project, Matt dealt with the backlog of tickets. Apart from minor version updates, I don't see anything significant before the next toolchain update, at least for x86 which is all LFS cares about now. Sometimes things are quiet, particularly when most of the upstream developers seem to be focussed on stability (e.g. the kernel and gcc). It's fairly hard to forsee where the next big excitement in LFS will come from, but then apart from user errors it seems to build a solid and reliable system at the moment. All of the LFS projects lack developers (and testers for -svn), but it doesn't automatically mean the projects are in danger.
