That is a really good idea.
Ok, I know which projects don't have their project page replaced. I can publish that list here tomorrow.
Of all the projects which don't have a front page (list at the end of this mail), these don't have a git repository in GitLab:
arxana
asdf-install
asdf-packaging
boston-lisp
chemboy
cl-amqp
cl-buchberger
cl-cactus-kev
cl-captcha
cl-clickatell
cl-gdbm
cl-gtk2
clint
cl-lazy-list
cl-lexer
cl-match
cl-ode
clotnet
cl-peg
cl-player
cl-rundown
cltl3
cl-yacc-ebnf
common-math
decl
defmud
docutrack
fset
graphic-forms
innen
israel-lisp
jess-parse
lisp-interface-library
mit-cadr
mk-defsystem
movies
objective-cl
phorplay
same
sqlisp
tioga
trivial-features
trivial-shell
ucs-sort
umpa-lumpa
xml-psychiatrist
Of these, these 4 seem to have a subversion repository though:
common-math
fset
graphic-forms
mit-cadr
So I propose to remove from the site
common-lisp.net, the following 42 projects (after contacting their respective project members):
arxana
asdf-install
asdf-packaging
boston-lisp
chemboy
cl-amqp
cl-buchberger
cl-cactus-kev
cl-captcha
cl-clickatell
cl-gdbm
cl-gtk2
clint
cl-lazy-list
cl-lexer
cl-match
cl-ode
clotnet
cl-peg
cl-player
cl-rundown
cltl3
cl-yacc-ebnf
decl
defmud
docutrack
innen
israel-lisp
jess-parse
lisp-interface-library
mk-defsystem
movies
objective-cl
phorplay
same
sqlisp
tioga
trivial-features
trivial-shell
ucs-sort
umpa-lumpa
xml-psychiatrist
The remaining 69 projects will have their project page redirected to the GitLab group page (or in case there's only a Subversion repository, to Trac).

Definitely. They make the projects hub list frustrating to browse.
Ok. I hope that the above proposal addresses that.
