Agreed, https://grass.osgeo.org/ is absolutely dry & boring.

I am thinking for 1-2 years about moving the GRASS site to a CMS (to
better distribute the workload of maintaining the site), but resisted
so far for these reasons:
- no idea how to mirror a CMS to our 25 GRASS mirrors (make a local
  static copy, the rsync?)
- waiting for site wise solution through OSGeo (or will we have numerous
  CMSs in parallel?)
