I would like to propose a change to the organization of Multimedia Libraries and Drivers. I would like to see it divided into sections similar to the way GNOME Additional Packages is split into three sections.
I would like to organize Chapter 35 into something like the list below. We might want to expand this to reorganize Chapters 36, Audio Utilities, Chapter 37, Video Utilities, and Chapter 38, CD/DVD-Writing Utilities. There is obviously multiple ways to reorganize these chapter(s). Discussion is welcome. -- Bruce 35.
