Hello Frank,
As documented in the d-d-a announcement, Apps/Tools has been removed
because it was a catch-all section. Packagers should try to find a
more specific section or request for one.
Looking at other calendar apps, they are still in Apps/Tools, with some
of them in Applications/Office.
Basically I see three options:
-- Put calendars in Applications/Office.
-- Put calendars in Applications/Project Management.
-- Add a new section (named e.g. Applications/Time tracking) for
calendar and clocks.
I am CCing Debian-policy for comments.
Thanks for raising the issue.
Cheers,
