That is a good move, the pages are less cluttered now.

I just added a few apps I have currently installed and use from more or 
less often. Also, there are a number of apps in the initial list which 
may or may not have a place there, according with the spin philosophy:
- there are gimp, cinepaint and krita, which have a huge overlap and 
some particular niches, like using cinepaint for HDR and krita for 
painting, but for the rest they are quite interchangeable. So they are 
fit if we go for an "everything" approach but may be not for "best of 
breed";
- the same for things like pngcrush and optipng or gthumb and shotwell;
- do we need to list apps like totem, rhythmbox, firefox or empahty, 
which are *expected* for *any* desktop system?

Since is less likely we will have a conclusion about brushes in the near 
future, I think we should go for the spin approval without them and 
figure it later.

As said before, I am opposed to customized graphics/different look and 
feel for the spin.
