* Meeting Log 07/05/2010:
[15:29:57] <mchua> #agreed Browse start page feature accepted - mchua is the feature sponsor
[15:30:17]
* copied file:///usr/share/bookmarks/default-bookmarks.html to desktop,
[15:30:40] <mchua> #info Implementation: genericize patch, push to upstream Browse, edit wiki pages it links to - use this as an example of the feature process, as it's simple but an obvious change
[15:30:51]
[15:31:01] <mchua> hm, "clearly visible and easily to understand" is probably better than "obvious" but anyway...
[15:31:24] <mchua> satellit__: so go ahead and move it to the "accepted" section of the features list, and let me know when you're going to be in Portland and we'll sit down and work on it then.

'''In a discussion with Peter Robinson, I discovered that a custom bookmark Browse.rpm can be downloaded from the fedora repository. I propose we use this fact to create a custom set of bookmarks and artwork for Soas with links to: e-books; Floss Manuals; wiki.sugarlabs.org, all of the links to files in the SugarCreationKit DVD + The Normal Browse Google Screen'''
'''In a discussion with Peter Robinson, I discovered that a custom bookmark Browse.rpm can be downloaded from the fedora repository.
* I propose we use this fact to add a link on the startup page to a Customized Introductory page on the wiki for Soas with links to:
# Instructions
# Compatable Activities
# Installation Methods
# Floss Manuals
# Pertinent links to pages on wiki.sugarlabs.org
# Artwork -DVD/CD Covers etc
# e-books (?)
# Other sources of information (blogs/web sites etc)?
*This should be a simple edit in Browse to point to file:///usr/share/bookmarks/default-bookmarks.html instead of file:///usr/share/sugar/activities/Browse.activity/data/index.html.

==='''Suggestions on just what content should be included on this screen must be determined from discussions on the lists.'''===
===This is the Proposed start screen===
* Use the existing Browse start screen and just insert one Custom Link '''Introduction:Soas_Mango_Lassi'''
::CLICK THIS LINK TO TEST: http://people.sugarlabs.org/Tgillard/index14.html
:: This example will be changed when Mango Lassi becomes available
* This looks like the most acceptable Idea

# Make proposed changes in Git to file http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/browse/repos/mainline/blobs/master/data/index.html
