Stephen, please correct me where I'm wrong, but after mirroring the site and removing docs and javadocs since these are generated, it would appear that there are only 7 html files to the website. It's not clear to me that at this point the effort of creating or moving to a template engine is worth the effort. I would rather see the static site as-is move to version control sooner rather than later and not hinge upon generation.
