One trick I use is the ``direct_to_template`` generic view (http://
www.djangoproject.com/documentation/generic_views/#using-simple-
generic-views). This lets you do something like::
urlpatterns = patterns('',
(r'^/$', 'django.views.generic.simple.direct_to_template',
{'template' : 'homepage'}),
)
Then, when you later decide that you need "real"content in your
homepage view, you can replace the view function with a pointer to a
real view.
