This site manages many software projects run by different people.  One project here is particularly distinctive, however -- the "SoundSoftware.ac.uk Project":https://code.soundsoftware.ac.uk/projects/soundsoftware-site is used to manage the development and running of the site itself.  This documentation you are reading now is part of that project.
