Note that it's not just KRecipes: if gourmet _does_ belong into "Other", then  
so do several other packages. Probably also a few packages from Core (which  
AFAIK doesn't use "Other" at all currently).  
  
Moreover, the kdetoys package which has newly been added also ends up in  
"Other" because the Fedora menus have no "Toys" category (I checked the files  
and it's just not there, so unless I'm missing something it's not a local  
configuration issue). So:  
* either "Other" is accepted as a category to use, which also means it should  
be used consistently (i.e. by a lot more than just gourmet and kdetoys)  
* or a "Toys" category should be added to redhat-menus  
* or kdetoys needs to add some other category/ies ("Accessories" appears to be  
the catch-all in current Fedora use). 
 
I think menu consistency is an important issue which needs input from both Core 
and Extras maintainers.
