Understanding PCGS' Type Sets

I have my 1900-prsent type set saved as one of my "favorite" pages, so that I click on the link it takes me straight to it. It still does, but when I try to find it from PCGS' website, the 1900-present set is no longer listed and I can't locate my set. I don't get it. Which one of these sets is compareable to the "Modern Type Set"? And why can't I locate my registry set from here?

The Modern Type Set (1900-Present) is offline while we update the set. Thanks for your patience.
What exactly are the changes? I feel my fingers inching ever closer to the "Delete" button.

Where to start...
-There will be three sets, not one.
-- Circ Strike
-- Proof
--Circ & Proof
-Gold was removed to separate sets.
- It's being weighted.
- The years will be 1900-1999 so all those high grade 2001 coins don't count no more!
If you scroll on down the registry news you can find the new set contents. You would have really cringed if you saw the first proposal!

Here's the low-down. You set will be placed as MS & PR Combined Major Types 20th Century (wordy enough for ya? ). You need two proofs for a complete set, a state quarter silver proof and a 1992-1999 Kennedy silver proof.
The date range will run from 1900-1999, so the Sac is dropped from all sets except the 1950-present sets. The Major Types set does not have the varieties like the Type 3 SLQ. There will be another set, the With Varieties set, which will have all non-gold coins the current set had, minus the Sac, plus a few extras, the Narrow Rim SBA (1979) and a SMS cion of your choice (94 & 97 Jefferson or 98 Kennedy).
