Hi Wesley,

What would be the reason behind keeping Mezzanines index.html and having 
your own homepage.html extend it?

What I mean is, if you copy the index.html from the Mezzanine library and 
place it in your local templates folder you can override Mezzanines 
index.html and customize it however you like.  So that whenever Mezzanine 
looks for index.html it will pull up your index.html template.  Their index 
is more of a starting point and not a solution so feel free to cut it up 
however you'd like :)

As an example I've set the templates folder for my project to be (via 
settings.py) to be the 'templates' folder from the root of my project.
Ex: TEMPLATE_DIRS = (os.path.join(PROJECT_ROOT, "templates"),)

So if I place index.html in that folder Mezzanine loads that file as my 
index.  I can put whatever I want in the file and mezzanine will use it as 
the index.
