Full category proposal (was: [SVN] Tagging Bundles)

[Benoit Gagnon]

Great list, I like how this is going. Here are my comments:

Functionality : this doesn't feel right... What does Text, Source and
Image Browser have in common ? I think "Utilities" or "Tools" would
better fit. Plain text, imo, should not be there. Actually, if the
bundle itself has no syntax and is mostly (if not entirely) composed
of text commands, perhaps it should be renamed to "Text utilities" ?
Do Bundles necessarily need to be named according to the type of
document they serve rather than the functionality they provide ?

Apache, Lighttp, SSH-Config: How about grouping those in a "System
configuration" category ? I would expect all "conf" bundles to be
under the same category. Not sure Apache and Lighttpd are that closely
related to the "Web developer" category just because they serve HTTP
requests. Otherwise it could be difficult to find places fo other the
config files in the future. Say for example, a crontab or sendmail
bundle.

I share your view on the Application support / Mac specific overlap.
I'd drop the second one and put everything in Application support.

ActionScript: Should etiher be under "Client side" or in Application
support/Scripting Language as it's closely related to Flash and not a
web-specific language.

Your comment on Writer/Documentation vs Programming/Documentation is
right; it should definitely be the latter.
