Bug Description
Howdy!
I love me some PPAs.
However, when I'm clicking from a user/team's page, to the PPA page, I never, ever, ever, ever, ever find the default view useful. I always, always, always, always have to click one more time, to the "View Package Details" link. That view is far superior, and always has what I need -- what packages are available, what versions, where are the build successes/failures, etc.
It might be nice to add the "Adding this PPA to your system" and "Uploading packages to this PPA" sections to the +packages view, but aside from those two bits, the far, far, far more important bits are in the +packages view.
Thanks!
Dustin

Hi Dustin, thanks for the bug.
The first page is is supposed to be a user-centric view and the +packages a developer-centric view. Bearing that in mind, what particular aspects apart from the ones you listed should be on the first page?
