I don't intend to make it as a plugin, but you could do what you want pretty easily I think - just copy lines 18 to 80 of the code from the file to a plugin using the forumhome_start hook - and copy the table template code (i.e. the stuff between the <table> and </table> tags ) from the top_posters template into the forumhome template, above or below the "What' going on" table, depending on your preference. You might want to make it the Top 5 as well - for space reasons.

Interesting. I don't have a massive board, but hope to in the future, so I will follow your advise and keep it as a seperate page.
