@ Andrew: No offense taken. We currently have a good starting point but you are right, we need to ruminate and maybe iterate a bit on this before putting in more work actually categorizing things. In any case, thank you for making the changes.

Yes, the Development category could become useful this way, and as you say, advanced users and developers likely won't use category filtering anyway. > Maybe 'Business and Productivity'. Sounds good to me. Another thing we discussed briefly on IRC a couple of weeks ago was what to do with fonts. I believe we ended up agreeing to use the Graphics category for the time being but the possibility of creating a separate Fonts category was also mentioned. The reason for having a Fonts category would be to prevent the Graphics category from becoming cluttered with potentially hundreds of fonts. Thoughts? - luroh
