I think groups may need a bigger rework than just those changes. To me, package groups should be as close as possible as menu entries (for graphical packages), but maybe that would be too few groups ? In fact, debian has some advance upon us on this, by the use of debtags. We could maybe simplify grouping if we could put some information in tags rather than in groups. I don't know if there are cross-distributions efforts to harmonize package groups, but that would be an interesting subject to tackle in the upcoming meeting in Nürnberg. More questions than answers :) Regards Samuel Verschelde
