Hi Martin, The changes you've made so far look great, the app is much easier to navigate already. My reply to your question inline below.

Yes, I think we need another page containing just the repositories list. I also think you could collapse the Participants page into the Repository page, as a second section. So, you'd still have three page 'levels', but Repository is a container for edit, verify, and particpants, as described in the diagram I've posted here: http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/website/content/project_layout.pdf The text on the right describes the content for each grey square 'landing page'. You already have three levels, so I'd suggest that you use the third level for repos, rather than participants, to make it more intuitive because currently, you can be on a participants page without having any indication of the associated repo your searching unless you go back to the repo page. If you make these suggested changes, I think you can safely remove the Actions column on the repo table, since the link to the repo page in the Repository Name column will provide access to all the same actions and details.
