Hi Kumar,

I re-posted your link to the wiki. If it disappears, I'll help you 
restore it. I suspect it was deleted out of clumsiness and not any 
secret standards for what should be on the front page. I think the 
nature of a wiki is that all the users have to evolve standards for 
how things should be organized and how people should edit.  I 
personally think nothing should ever be deleted. At worst, it should 
be put in a separate link or 'refactored' by being summarized.

I did the last reorganization because (1) most of the front page was 
obsolete due to Allan's including them in the distribution and (2) 
someone had incompetently edited the front page to nuke most of the 
writing people did.  It's possible that in restoring the old writing 
I accidentally lost some post-nuking changes you made (but I did try 
to check).

best wishes, Eric
