Good eyes.  ;-)

The short answer is yes.  Right now I'm up to my eyeballs in building
out the new infrastructure for t7a.org; this time around it's
Kerberos, AFS, LDAP, Xen, isconf, and a few other things...  All of
our web sites, including infrastructures.org, are getting moved into
the new world after that.  In the case of infrastructures.org, it's
moving into a wiki market -- that's a Trac site with the tracmarket
plugin added (http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/MarketPlugin)...  If you
haven't read up on decision markets, now would be a good time to
start.  ;-)

As for the discrepancies between infrastructures.org and isconf 4, see
http://www.infrastructures.org/papers/turing/turing.html in case you
haven't stumbled across it yet; we got a lot of things right in the
earlier 'bootstrapping' paper (which infrastructures.org is based on),
but I think we were just plain lucky we didn't shoot ourselves in the
foot a few times.  If nothing else, read the Foreword in 'turing'.
