  Title: Create sensible start pages for browsers
   
  openSUSE-11.4: Unconfirmed
  Priority
      Requester: Desirable
   
  Requested by: Wolfgang Rosenauer (wrosenauer)
   
Description:
  The current start page for browsers is http://www.opensuse.org/.
  In my opinion the current content is not useful as a startpage which is
  kept by people.
  I would find a very small page with a possibility to search the net
  useful like the following examples:
  * http://www.google.de/firefox
  * http://start.ubuntu.com/10.04/Google/
  * http://start.fedoraproject.org/
  I don't want to promote Google but it's still the most popular search
  engine and what people mainly use.
  As part of this possible change I'd like to have an offline start page
  which can be loaded (at least) in Firefox when the machine is offline.
  Can people come up with something like that? Just an index.html with
  some more files probably installed in a location where other browsers
  can pick it up as well.

+ The openSUSE page is part of our branding. Most browsers already search
+ with google by default anyway and users can change the startpage. I
+ don't think putting google as default is a good idea. What I do like
+ however is the idea to have an off-line page - but it should be
+ openSUSE branded. Anyone with some html skills could make it (even by
+ just dumping one of the current openSUSE webpages), who's up for that?
