I don't speak for CFAR, but I believe that they wish to develop their product further before actually taking the time to write extensively about it, because the techniques are still being under active development and there's no point in writing a lot about something that may change drastically the next day.
It's also true that a large part of the benefit of the workshops comes from interacting with other participants and instructors and getting immediate feedback, as well as from becoming a part of the community.
I think the tighter feedback loops is a big point. Being there in person really helps assess what works and does not.
Of course a change of format can get in the way when that comes around, but I think the workshop format will help anyway.
On the specific suggestion of a book, there's already a lot of written material on this.
