Added a resources page on community.ko

Hi

Sorry I misused the word namespace. I meant subpage.

I felt like the issue was not the number of subpage but the name of the page.

Would community.kde.org/Talks_and_papers work?

If not, I'm not sure to understand what you would prefer, as community.ko/Talks/Resources doesn't bring much (talks would be empty and everything would be in Resources)

I'm not trying to do "my way" (I don't have one) but to keep with the work we did during the sprint at Cern, in the same spirit and structure.

Cheers
Olivier
