We have to move them into the appropriate category. OK. I just thought this was due to some misunderstanding by the people who checked those in. My fault!

It is a work in progress. Sure. I just thought we could get this organized in a flexible way right from the start, so we can focus on the "progress" more than on the "work". ;) Anyway, I was not criticizing your work, sorry if that came out wrong! > Here are a few ideas behind the idea of category into the repository. > For example if someone just want to just checkout package from the > category he is interested in > Facilitate the involvement of people dedicated to a specific category. Those are of course valid points, though I still think that is something that can be generated from the meta-information that is already available. Writing a script for that should be fairly trivial and I'd be happy to do so! > > [2] I already started to work on that but it's not uploaded > > yet.

At the moment, I just have a DocbookXML frame with very little content. I'll upload it soon so you can have a look at it and modify it. I can't say when exactly this will be but I hope so during the evening. I'm also very open to the format. I like DocBook but LaTeX may be more common in the scientific world. I do not have experience with LaTeX and HTML; my DocBook experience if very good when it comes to providing documentation in various formats. If you prefer something different, please let me know! (This should be a group effort anyway, I just try to start it.) Best regards Manuel
