Don't bash bash... it's just... too funny. |

I completely agree here. Everything should be subjected to some form of |
| 13 |
categorization. Also, would we keep the same "major" categories (app, |
| 14 |
dev, games, gnome, kde, media, net, (sound?,) sys, www, x11, xfce) or |
| 15 |
would we devise a completely new set? After all, *everything* would |
| 16 |
probably fit under app, at least when sub-categories are possible. |
