Hi,

https://tails.boum.org/todo/decide_what_web_homepage_to_use reads:

    iceweasel's homepage is currently set to
    <https://check.torproject.org/>.


    Our release process now includes quite thorough testing that makes us
    confident enough in Tails configuration to instead use this very
    website as the homepage.


    So, we might want to use the Tails website as the iceweasel homepage,
    so that users know about it and find how to get in touch, report bugs,
    etc. (a bookmark to <https://check.torproject.org/> has been added in
    the devel branch (commit 89d7561) to ease the transition).


    Another reason to switch homepage to something else (a light
    check.torproject.org version, perhaps?) is that [[the current one is
    not discreet enough|bugs/Congratulations_notice.]]. The Tails website
    is not substantially more discreet.

However, no decision have been reached now.

Thoughts?

Cheers
