menu categories [open question for users]

[Oscar]

Hi,
That would be a nice structure for the menus, but there are lots of apps
that will fall in several of these categories. Personally, I would be happy
with just a Pro-audio menu with all music-production-related-apps inside it.
And letting the Sound & Video menu alone with standard ubuntu's 'user'
multimedia apps like XMMS, VLC, etc.

Saludosss


PS: excuse my english
