The whole point of keeping menu policy separate was so that it would be easy to modify without all the overhead of making formal policy changes. I'm a little perturbed that we seem to have lost that. > --- menu-policy.sgml.old 2003-05-27 20:40:31.000000000 -0400 > +++ menu-policy.sgml 2003-05-27 20:54:41.000000000 -0400 > @@ -208,6 +208,10 @@ > <item> > <p>tests of ingenuity and logic</p> > </item> > + <tag>Simulation</tag> > + <item> > + <p>real world simulations, like flight simulators > + </item> > <tag>Sports</tag> > <item> > <p>games derived from "real world" sports</p> I second this proposal. In fact, I will second ANY proposal to add ANYTHING to the menu heirarchy, no matter how stupid, just to help get it beyond the needs-seconds stage and into the discussion stage, which is where I think these proposals should start! (Much like virtual package names, which is what the menu policy was supposed to be modelled on.) cheers -- Chris Waters | Pneumonoultra- osis is too long xtifr@debian.org | microscopicsilico- to fit into a single or xtifr@speakeasy.net | volcaniconi- standalone haiku
