Would be much more preferable to have default "N/A (try refreshing?)" text for an app or repo or service were the API call fails

Each heroku app has one collaborator who is an owner, and we should communicate this.

Currently "Service Inaccessible":

Balanced auth api (for user management) doesn't use api keys like the regular endpoint, but instead uses session id's from a cookie. I believe these expire every time a new login happens for the user who generated it. We need a way to renew the session.

We could create a new Balanced user with minimal access, just read access to users. Provided no one uses this user to login via the web, we could just use their session id, and that would be a quick fix. To actually solve the issue, we should use something like mechanize to programmatically login with this user when needed and piggyback on that session. we'd then be storing the username and password for that dummy user as envvars.

Better error-handling for heroku users would also be awesome. As in, if there's no github username, just show the heroku email

Right now, we make API calls every time someone looks at the page. We should cache for a period of time, and perhaps have a button to refresh data on demand.

@hurlothrumbo Wanna work on this next?

What is the domain (#790)? Why .css is there and not hosted by app?

For some reason, people on the owner's team are not showing up on team lists. Notably, this mean @whit537 isn't showing up as having access to repos

I sent an invite to @rummik on Heroku and now the access dashboard shows:

Given that there's a link to the access dashboard from building.gittip.com, it seems that the access dashboard could use facelift.

In particular I was thinking it could use some UI layout improvements.
