[SoaS] Your thoughts on My proposed feature Revised_Browse_default-bookmarks

[Thomas C Gilliard]

Sascha:

Thanks for the feedback.

I met with mchua this morning on #sugar-meeting and It looks like the 
proposal is to just add 1 item to existing Browse start new screen for 
the Soas Spin only.

A Crude mock up is available at 
http://people.sugarlabs.org/Tgillard/index6.html

The idea is to add this "Menu"  link to the existing screen and point it 
to http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_Creation_Kit#Introduction

Cordially;

AFAIK quite a bit of thought has gone into the current design. I suggest gradually improving it rather than starting over with a cluttered page (as your screenshot suggests).
