Wow, great changes!  I'm thrilled that you're going with the simple use the
first blog as the main one for buddypress user stuff. (at least for now).

I'm also glad you've rearranged the menus. What you just described makes
much more sense than the previous layout.

Last night I checked in revision 28 of BuddyPress. This version is now  
running on http://testdrivewpmu.com for  those who want to give it a  
run through.

Revisions include:

- Multiple blog support: members of your network can now sign up and  
run more than one blog. Their primary account is used as their 'home'  
where they can manage their friends/groups/messages etc. Other blogs  
just contain the normal WordPress blogging features. Their home  
account stays as the first tab in their admin interface and is marked  
with a user icon.

- New 'Blog' tab with no loss of WPMU features. I've completely  
revised the blog tab and simply bumped down all blog related tabs one  
level. This means all features found in WPMU are accessible and have  
not been renamed or moved.

- Site admin settings for BuddyPress have been moved under the 'Site  
Admin' tab. There was no point in creating another site administration  
tab.

- Member level settings for components have been introduced and blog  
settings have been dropped down one level to "Settings>Blog".

- I've introduced two site administration settings for BuddyPress  
under "Site Admin>BuddyPress". The first lets you completely turn off  
the 'Blog' tab and stick with the default WPMU tab layout. The second  
lets you disable the 'Design' tab site wide for all members (other  
than site admins).

Next Steps:

My next steps are to go through the code at this stage and bring it  
into line with the Wordpress Coding Standards, to keep things  
consistent. This will mean a change in filenames, if you are keeping  
up to date using SVN then this shouldn't cause a problem.
