This is pure speculation, but I believe Rogean is experimenting with new hosting for the wiki. In the past the wiki was just served on a box he hosted (the same box that powers these forums).
However, after he locked new user signups on the wiki, we started seeing CloudFront (ie. AWS) messages, which means it's now at least partially hosted in the Amazon cloud. Most likely the whole thing got moved, and he's using EC2 or something for the actual server hosting.
Again, just speculation, but if that's the case ... AWS is a giant pain in the ass, and even one config option being off can cause all sorts of problems. Rogean seems to be very good at dev ops, so I imagine he'll solve things eventually ... but I also imagine the wiki is low on his priority list.
