[gentoo-doc] Expanding categories' descriptions

[Denis M.]

Hello,

I believe it's necessary to bring this matter here. I think it's a good
idea to expand the categories' descriptions (found in the corresponding
/metadata.xml/ files) with more accurate descriptions of which packages
are welcome to fit in which categories.

The current descriptions are very vague and aren't probably in the best
shape to bring users' a good idea what certain category is about and
what packages are to be found there.

This can also be an issue for (new) ebuild-writers (either
user-contributing ebuilds or just gentoo developers that are not sure
about it).

This is of course checked by a gentoo developer if new ebuilds are to be
submitted via the bugzilla, but I still think we should provide a better
understanding of the categories.

If expanding the /metadata.xml/ files does not seem a good idea, we
should at least make a little bit more comprehensive description
somewhere in the /gentoo.org/doc// or /wiki.gentoo.org/ pages.

What do you think about it?
