'''In a discussion with Peter Robinson last night I discovered that a custom Browse bookmark can be downloaded from the fedora repository. I propose to use this "Feature" to allow a custom set of bookmarts to be maintained that would have a series of links ie: e-books; Floss Manuals; wiki.sugarlabs.org, all of the proposed links to files in SugarCreationKit DVD + The NormalBrowse Google Screen'''
