Dear all,

Having read the thread, I think that one solution is to take the same
approach as for the Games section. Then, if the resulting number of
categories is a bit too much for a 14'' screen, one can part them
between Science and Education, by putting a line between what is useful
mostly for professionnals, and what is not. For instance:

Science
  Bibliography
  Databases
  Imaging
  Modelling
  ...

Education
  Discovery
  Quizzes
  Training
  ...
  
In a separate discussion, I was questionning the feasability of moving
some programs from Science to Science/NCBI (National Center for
Biotechnological Information), and I was pointed out that on a
multi-user system, the persons who did not install the package will not
necessary know what NCBI mean. This is exactly what will happen on a
computer shared by a researcher and his children. Separating Science and
Education would helps to solve this.

Have a nice day,
