New Menu category Applictions/Multimedia
Hi,
I was pointed to
http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/menu-policy/ch2.html
as I had an issue with an application categorized as Sound though it did video
and pictures, too.
I found that there was no entry for Multimedia but for Applications/Sound and
Applications/Video which is rather confusing as some of the applications we
have in the repos ,such as VLC(in viewers and Bangarang(in Sound) would be
rather confusing to a user.
For examble I wouldnt actually think that VLC can be defined as a viewer or
bangarang as a stale Sound application as both do Video as well as Sound.
I'm hereby proposing an additional Category for this list of such applications
called Multimedia. This defines clearer what they are.
As a side effect teams such as pkg-multimedia don't do a separation between the
two either.
Kind regards,
Andreas Marschke.
