Great!  Another desktop environment! <g>  Seriously though, rox looks cool, 
even though I doubt I'll ever use it myself.  

Anything that has 20 or more packages related to it probably deserves its 
own category... rox itself should probably be moved to x11-wm/ with the 
supporting packages to app-rox/.  Just my suggestion.
