Please make sure you commit any changes to use.local.desc to 
metadata.xml otherwise you risk the chance of having your changes lost. 
I'm currently in the process of converting use.local.desc to 
metadata.xml. After a category is converted, it will be auto-generated 
EXCLUSIVELY from metadata.xml. This means it will be YOU QA error if you 
only commit to use.local.desc from here on out.

This means use.local.desc will be in a state of constant flux as a 
result of this.

If people wish to take specific categories, please let this thread know.
