So I am of the opinion as Koen, to deprecate the Application Catalogue page and start with a clean slate, and as suggested take the opportunity to reorganize the new catalogue better. Remember now the concept of - click on download link in application catalogue page, browser opens AI, AI installer installs WOULD NOT WORK since we moving to full package management and repository structure (Unless off course packages are as self constained as they with Maemo 1.1, but that we all agree is not real package management :).
