Description

In the ticket #66 we propose to find some good Epiphany's bookmarks for children. The main drawback is that bookmarks are not easily accessible in Epiphany. So the idea is to put the most interesting bookmarks on the default homepage organized in launcher icons. Just as the main DDL interface is made of launcher icons, opening Epiphany would show launcher icons for the best child websites.

Concerning implementation, it would be easier to have this homepage in Spip. This would ease its translation and make it easier to change its bookmarks. The question is how to arrange the Spip section hierarchy in order to avoid to see this page while browsing DDL documentation online. Currently there are two suggestions:

1. Create a new root section without a dedicated language, which would host all the translated homepages. This section would be excluded from Spip menus.

2. Make these home pages be the “children corner's” home pages, which supposes that we setup this corner before we can deal with its home pages! Note that its homepage would then be significantly different from the other pages…

Drawback: what if we want to put a search engine entry in this homepage or anything that is not easily handled by Spip? So the 3rd and 4th options are:

3. Write a pure Html page then use an additional rewrite script to translate it.

4. Use Spip pages to generate pure Html pages redesigned in kind of portal page for the CD
