We should probably switch entirely to a more modern static site generator.
My thoughts on this were in the direction of copying the side of another
Apache project that has a nice site and building on that ;)

Based on my bubble of interest, I would have looked at one of these as a
starting point.

- https://opennlp.apache.org/
- https://wicket.apache.org/
- https://solr.apache.org/

As an additional consideration, I was hoping not having to use an entirely
new technology but one that may be familiar or at least peak popular such
that there are ample howtos and many people would know how to deal with it.

Again, based on my bubble, I would have considered

- jekyll
- antora
- docusaurus

You are right, it is probably a good idea to ensure that certain key URLs 
remain the same - possibly using redirects. I don't think all URLs need to 
remain stable. It would be good though if a page not found would have a 
sensible error page.

Btw. we already have an (empty) repo for a new website here:

  https://github.com/apache/uima-site
