I'm not sure whether start.ubuntu.com is going to happen. Certainly,
this page is not intended to be that page, it is intended to be a
browser homepage in the event that start.ubuntu.com doesn't happen.
Given that it hasn't happened yet, and that it should have happened
early in the release cycle, we'll just have to wait and see!
