ViewVC provides templates which drive nearly all its output.  You should 
find in the templates/ directory a bunch of .ezt files.  The .ezt file which 
corresponds to the view of the list of repositories is "roots.ezt".  Open 
that file in a text editor and change it as you see fit.  Just be careful 
about adding text that has square brackets [] as the EZT parser will treat 
those as template directives.
