<br>Yes, categories are nice.<br></blockquote></div><br>Sorry for sneaking into the conversation again. <br><br>When I saw the Wine Wiki, I was disappointed that the app db wasn't integrated into it. It seemed like the thing to do, from a functional standpoint.
<br><br>It seems to me the appdb already regroups much of the categories you would end up opening in a forum. How would categories be organized inside forum? Would you open a new category for each tested app? Would you concentrate all app conversations into a single category? I hope not! But how to strike the right balance? I think a Wiki does it by its nature. It is quite organic. Content gets created on the spot, when needed, and evolves in place.
<br><br>If you want more categories, I suggest to expand the Wiki and merge the app db into it. Debates can stay in the mailing list. Information gets distillated in the WIki.<br><br>This is yet another suggestion coming from a person that's totally independant from the project. I enjoy the easy role of offering radical suggestions.
