What I can make available, that would be input to an updated version of voynichese.com, are:

1) the new Beinecke scans all scaled down to a height of 1500 pixels, which is equivalent to what voynichese does with the old scans. Exception: the rosettes page is scaled down to 3000, because the actual page is also almost twice as high. Note that voynichese does not include this page. These images could also be used by @farmerjohn in case he considers Koen's request. Of course, it is not particularly difficult to create these. I do have all the scale factors from original to scaled down images, also not very difficult to create, of course

2) updated and completed transliteration data. This is the RF1 file expressed in Basic Eva. The source data is in the STA1 alphabet, so it would be possible (not too difficult) to translate this (ad hoc, online) to any existing alphabet. Even any user's own alphabet, as long as he/she presents a single translation table from STA1 to his/her alphabet. Many-to-one mappings are allowed.

3) the coordinate boxes for all words in the RF1 file. These are 'slanted' boxes, meaning that they are rotated along the direction of writing. They contain six values instead of the four of voynchese.com. They are not as accurate as the ones on voynichese, but serve the purpose of highlighting each word.

These last data are in csv files, so would require a simple script to convert to XML files.
The logic of voynichese.com would require an update to convert the box coordinates. This should be quite straightforward.
If the STA-to-any-alphabet translation is used, further additional logic would be needed for the user interaction, and the invocation of "bitrans" to do the translation.

I can provide more details if someone if feeling up to doing this (especially 'Job' of course).

EDIT: this is how the slanted text boxes are defined:
