There have been post-mortems every year (with varying degrees of formality and levels of participation); these have resulted in a handful of private reports to the Foundation & within the org team (and many more sets of informal notes). Basically, every year the organizers have sat down, sometimes with other people and sometimes not, and talked about the conference afterwards; ideally this gets written up. I personally have four sets of these notes tucked away in various notebooks, documents, etc....
What there has never been is a publicly available report, or summation of these meetings, that anyone ever got around to posting for the rest of the world to see -- I think that's the part where exhaustion comes into play :)
The idea of a post-mortem is to learn for the future, so it isn't really worth having one if you don't publish the results for future teams can learn from them.
