He is working through quite a list of things for upgrading the site. Zandor, moving the "What's Going On?" section to the top of the main index is on that list.
The forum was opened way before the complete upgrade was finished in order to allow the membership to use it. There will be many changes over the next few days. Some you will notice right away...some you may never see unless you go looking for them.
I ask, on behalf of the staff and WoodiE, that you have some patience as the site gets upgraded. If WoodiE comes out and says he is done, and things are still out of place...then hammer away. Until then, keep the comments coming...but be patient. The changes you desire might be right around the corner.
