The project website runs on a Linux box using apache, php, perl,
cgi-bin access, etc.  Its accessed through an ssh client using your
sourceforge username assuming you have been added to the project.
Uploading can be done through scp (or pscp using putty).

As for the current website, its running an *old* version of phpwebsite
and all of the data is stored in a mysql database. I tried upgrading
but it can't since phpwebsite requires a very recent version of php
and Sourceforge has not updated to it yet.  As for the DocCenter, its
using a wiki obviously.  It would be better if we added a wiki with
better security that integrated with the look and feel of the site.

As for the future of the site, I really don't see the need to use
PHPWebsite or PostNuke considering the DynAPI project doesn't need all
of the features it provides.  I think a good designed site backend
would allow news posting, documentation, download management, etc to
happen very easily.
