I'm not sure we're talking about the same thing. I mean making it more clear in the UI that there's a separation between projects where you're a committer, and where you're just invited (to use another poster's words). If an (apparently) Github employee feels the need to wonder how often he's going to have to explain it, it seems that there exists a common confusion in the distinction.


Yea sorry I tangent-ed a bit there. Probably because I just think this is a non-issue. It's in the UI in that it's listed in your repositories you have access to, but not on your profile. I don't see what kind of UI change they could make that would make it clearer short of text or a tooltip or something, and I think that the %0.001 of users who would ever care is just not worth the time to even considering it. The reason kneath was wondering how many times he had to say it is because it's all over this thread -- including the direct parent of the asker in this case.
