A lot of these solutions sound very complex. Sorting, tags, categories, grid, trees...

How about just showing my repos that I starred at the top? Or if you want to get slightly more complex, a "Feature" button similar to "Star."

i have almost 40 repositories. many private (because i don't want them to muddy up my Github image). a single boolean "featured" is terribly insufficient. tagging would be fantastic.
