Scattered thoughts on the categories:

- Perhaps Sound & Video is more Multimedia, as video/graphics goes with
X.

- File Systems are closely tied in to the kernel, so may be those should
go together.

- IMHO, Samba is sufficiently funky to warrant it's own category.

- Perhaps have a Networking category to encompass DNS, DHCP,
NetworkManager etc.  It could be argued that the client and server
software ought to be handled as a single group here.

- It may be that PPC has specific issues that warrant it being handled
separately (no idea).

- Not sure where database servers ought to go.


To get things started: I can cover some combination of networking, Web
and Samba/File servers, plus databases or installation issues if those
are worthwhile categories.
