Possibly, although I surmise that the updated, dynamic content (for
example, links to latest announcements and Fedora Magazine articles) is
what makes it useful to people. I don't know how to do that with a
local page unless we push out an updated startpage RPM daily. :)

I think primarily, I'd like to put it back to how it is in F20 and
figure out improvements from there.

We don't know, and it will be a little hard to measure the impact since
it only affects new profiles.
