You'll notice that in the reference AudioVisual is a related Category to the Database category. I'm pretty sure the implication here is that the Database category is suppose to encompse applications which keep a database of AudioVisual crap... because well.. everyone and their brother seems to have a great "new" way to cateloging dvd's and music. You can not explain why AudioVisual is a related category using a narrow definition of the Database catelog which means on "manage a database server." Clearly in the context in the reference provided by the related category column suggests people were originally thinking a database of crap... Goumet just expands the bounds of the type of crap beyond audio/visual. Just think of Gourmet as a really really bad audiovisual catelog of music videos about food where the recipe is the lyrics and it doesn't actually play any audio and the video is only a single still frame of the end result. -jef"Once we actually have viable technology which allows for inclusion of aroma as well as audio and visual tracks inside an ogg container, we will be forced to rethink how we catelog all sorts of "media" catelogs. Sure, the movie Bud the Chud could be filed under "stinky" no matter which human sense you wished to catelog.. but for a lot of other things it becomes much more complicated. Gourmet could be extended to be the ultimate aroma-therapy application! Who wants to smell the soothing smells of a cool ocean breeze, when instead you could dial up the smell of your favorite recipe for fried chicken and play that back with Gourmet!!!!!!"spaleta -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
