My very personal 2 cents on the matter of front-pages (but this isn't necessarily official "si-policy"): front-pages look nice, they can give a forum a nice bookmarkable page before you descend into the forum dungeon. But: they need to be maintained, which costs extra time, energy and dedication. The moment a community stops maintaining their front-page zealously (as seems to have happened some (long) time back at xsibase), they might as well kill the front-page altogether. A good front-page might not always be truly noticed, a badly outdated front-page however can do damage to what you're trying to achieve. Such an outdated front-page gets way more exposure than the good updated one could ever hope to achieve.
But in the end: The community, in the end, isn't in it because of the front-page, but because of the forums, that are on offer.
Maintaining a forum as such already is hard work enough, maintaining a - in my view - relatively unimportant front-page just for "keeping up appearances" just means more work for the lucky few called admins and mods...

Oh I really don't care about the front page. But I'm under the impression that there is no one "in charge". Are the forums still being moderated? Everyone should just migrate here, that would be convenient. Even the name of "XSI" base is outdated.

Is there any update when this will be fixed. I know its xmas etc. But its been a while now?

It has apparently been fixed.

Ah well, life's back to normal, I guess...
