This may be mindless political bikeshedding but I thought I should at
least point it out: our official position is that `non-free is not
part of Debian'. If we call it a `component' we would seem to be
undermining it.
So as a purist, I would prefer `category'. `Area' works too since it
refers to an `area' in the FTP site.
