Description

The Project.net menu (currently on the left side of each window) is a growing list of commands with minimal organization and inconsistent naming conventions.

User stories

• Group related functionality by placing those items in sub-menus
• Choose consistent naming conventions for main menu items and sub-menu items. The current names are a mix of nouns (Forms), verbs (Scheduling), singular (Directory) and plural (Discussions).

Fast Solution

In the event that a quick reorganization cannot be agreed upon, (and better to reorganize from the top down) a layout solution that doesn't necessitate reorganization - condense the in-between space.
