Hello,
I noticed that the hscurses package[1] is listed under category "User-interface" while all other user interface packages are listed under "User Interfaces".
Could someone please release hscurses under the "User Interfaces" category and remove the current one? That will make it more consistent.
In general we need a way for trusted users to tag and categorise packages. Restricting uploaded categories would also help in the ontology sprawl.
I suggested that introduction of new categories should not be restricted, but at least a warning and a question should be raised if you introduce a new category, because it may only be the difference between "User Interface" and "User-Interface". The downside is, that introducing new categories in order to place "unique" packages is too tempting.
