Where are you quoting "Edutainment" from? I can't find it anywhere on |
| 16 |
that page. |

If you want to do something that doesn't fit the spec, get the spec |
| 19 |
fixed. Looking through that list of main categories, scientific packages |
| 20 |
might sorta fit in Education (to teach), Development (libraries and |
| 21 |
development tools), Graphics (sci-viz, molecular graphics, etc) or |
| 22 |
Office (to get work done), depending on each package's purpose. The |
| 23 |
additional categories seem to fit quite well. |
