Well, you don't, but users may want to browser PyPI and other similar indexes based on products for Plone, Plone 3 and Plone 4. The reasoning behind using major release classifiers is that package authors may now want to update the classifiers for their packages every time you issue a new release (by making a new release of the package). The unqualified category is needed for consistency with the other parent categories in the trove index. > We also discussed keeping the list as small as possible on the other thread.
