    I added a bit about G-CW embedding into presheaves on Or(G).

    moved the section on smooth G-manifolds from “Properties” to “Examples”.

    added pointer to Waner 80, who attributes this class of examples to Matumoto 71

    which is apparently the origin of the concept for equivariance groups being compact Lie groups.

    (A minute ago I also knew the original reference for finite groups, but now I seem to have lost it…)

    I have added pointer to

    for the origin of the concept of G-CW complexes over finite groups.

    It’s interesting that Bredon’s proposal to parametrize over the GG-orbit category precedes the proof of the equivariant Whitehead theorem by 4 years, and the proof of Elmendorf’s theorem by 16 years, given that it’s only the combination of these two theorems which justify Bredon’s idea on deeper grounds.

    Have added a remark (here) that GG-CW-complexes for finite groups are equivalently CW-complexes with cellular group action.

    Then I have made explicit (here) – for the simple special case of finite groups GG – that binary products in k-spaces preserve GG-CW complex structure.

    I gather this is still true for compact Lie groups GG, “due to” the equivariant triangulation theorem – but what’s an actual proof of this implication?
