  Moreover, it is expected that all of the software published through
  sun.com/opensolaris.org use existing (or introduce new) categories in
  this scheme.  If classification under another scheme, like ACM's or
  UNESCO's, becomes a common request from operating system users, then
  this guideline will change.

  Introduction of a scheme isn't like a package description; it requires
  agreement on client support.  For now, additional schemes may be
  specified, but only org.opensolaris.category.2008 is expected to be
  rendered by a client offering category browsing.
