Why the variation between the various GNU Emacs packages; it seems
these should all be Development/Editors?
Email discussion back on 4/2-3-4. While it can be argued that
functionally similar packages should all be placed in the same
category, doing so can lead to confusion because they are started
and used differently. For useability, GUI and terminal-based apps
should be separated into separate categories to prevent this confusion.
And if you recall, we strongly disagreed on that point. Packages
should not be categorised differently just because they are terminal
based or GUI-based in nature.
They should be categorised based on function, not presentation. To
do so otherwise is a path of madness.
The relevant, historical thread is here (from Apr 2009):

So we have (as least) four choices here:
1/ Accept what Frank is proposing. Danek has +1'ed it.
If I have a vote, then I also +1 it.
2/ Reject it completely, close the bug as WONTFIX and leave
things the way they are.
3/ Come up with an alternative proposal.
4/ Procrastinate and just let the bug fester in Bugzilla.
What should happen here? David (Comay), as project lead, it's
probably for you to decide as I suspect we aren't going to get
consensus otherwise.
Thanks.
