I am not sure if we should replace wp completely. There some pages which generated from dynamic content, like package list. So we should first define which content we want keep and which get rid of.

The alternative, we could easy update to WP version 5.2. but I have no experiance if it has an impact of performance.  <signatureafterquotedtext></signatureafterquotedtext>

Please correct me if I'm wrong; this is what I remember about the Wordpress
bits:

Those parts of code are not that related to Wordpress. They are pieces of
code written by us (OpenCSW) and that access tables that are made by us.
Wordpress serves us only as a framework, a glue between our custom code and
the HTTP server. We could relatively easily run the custom pieces of code
without Wordpress. It would require adapting the code, but we would not
need to rewrite everything.

Carsten, if you are spending any time on this, perhaps you could inventory
the custom pages? Basically, what are the URLs and code locations. Then we
could see what to do; continue with Wordpress or migrate to a more
lightweight PHP framework.

We could also run PHP from cron (daily?) to generate static HTTP pages,
depending how many generated pages there are.

it is PHP. What I saw is a wp-plugin written by William. 
Besides it would be nice to keep the style/theme but I have no idea how to replace the WP engine with static pages simply.

Why would the style stop you from making the code better for us? In our
list of priorities, the way things look is one of the last places. This
might confirm the stereotype of "this looks horrible, it must have been
designed by engineers", but who cares? What we want, is our website not
being broken into.

Whatever you decide, is fine!
