[ckan-dev] Modify home page template

Wed Mar 13 16:49:56 UTC 2013

Hi Thodoris,

Correcting myself, don't use organization_list()  directly, but
logic.get_action('organization_list'). That method might be overridden by a
plugin, so getting it through get_action guarantees that you're using the
correct one.

Cheers,
Vitor.
