> Currently when a variant (connected to the current site) is not found a list is produced of all variants that _are_ available for the document.
> As seen on our own documentation-wiki this list can get very long:
> http://cocoondev.org/daisy/13-cd.html
> Since the list is actually a result of the two dimensions in the variant-space (branch and language) these variants could also be presented in a tabular format (which would help readability IMHO)

> In the same area it would be nice if this overview page could also be actively linked to, rather then be the result of an error-situation (variant not found)
> * the 'variants' menu could have a 'overview' submenu that shows it
> even:
> * the daisy:... url could have a special recognised value '*' for branchId, languageId to hint to this 
> * the wiki and/or repo URLs could maybe use the same values for the request-paramaters?
