Laughing at that "active_dev" tag. I can't say I've really been paying attention here, but while some tags (requires C compiler) seem like they might be reasonable, other tags such as "black_magic" seem highly subjective. And the "source_filter" tag seems to belong in the "black_magic" category.
How were these tags chosen? Heck, where did the entire idea originate? I've not been paying attention lately (getting married will do that to you). This seems a bit odd, though I somewhat like the thought (particularly the "adopt_me" tag).
