From WordNet (r) 3.0 (2006) [wn]:
home page
n
  1. the opening page of a web site [syn: home page, homepage]
From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
   home page n.   1. One's personal billboard on the World Wide
   Web.   The term `home page' is perhaps a bit misleading because home
   directories and physical homes in {RL} are private, but home pages
   are designed to be very public.   2. By extension, a WWW repository
   for information and links related to a project or organization.
   Compare {home box}.
  
  

From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   home page
  
      1. The top-level entry point {web page}
      relating to an individual or institution, or possibly a
      subject area.   This often has a {URL} consisting of just a
      {hostname}, e.g. http://www.ncsa.uiuc.edu/.   All other pages
      on a {web site} are usually accessible by following {links}
      from the home page.
  
      2. The {web page} a user's {web browser} is configured to load
      each time it is started.   This will typically default to the
      {home page} (sense 1) of the organisation that produced or
      distributed the browser.
