'browser' is most likely one of the most universal words in our society. I haven't checked years of background information, so feel free to blame if somehow this was discussed/approached in the past. To be short and objective... when I installed my system, I ended up by bringing up Firefox. I took a minute to look at it and I got a Firefox beta promo page and openSUSE.org tab. Both ways.... this 2 pages for me (most likely for a lot of people out there) do not require much interaction from the user and force him to go to the preferences and change home page. Anyway we could add like 'Ubuntu' does a search engine (like the evil one) on the start page and some cool links like:
* openSUSE > the generic page that exists already on another tab. * openSUSE Forums > kinda interesting and somehow a more human thing for new comers. * (Online) Documentation > Documentation sites. * openSUSE Ambassadors > I think this one is _IMPORTANT_. High visibility.
If the browser initial page is useful... example: very used search engine. Many won't change it, just by lazyness and because it serves them... and we keep high visibility with our users.
Please check this thread: http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-project/2010-01/msg00003.html Last time I proposed something like that I got insulted. But I'm all for it to change the default if someone comes up with a nice start page.
