I've been looking at the debtags editor recently with the idea of clarifying the tags for various multimedia applications. I assume this is the appropriate tool to use? I'm slightly confused as to why the tags specific to A/DeMuDi appear in the 'section' section rather than 'sound'. We can encourage the users to contribute to this as well as providing useful bug-reports, via the a-users mailing list. We need to ensure that non-DeMuDi specific issues in the DeMuDi issue tracker have appropriate reports in Debian's BTS. Is there a way of doing this that would avoid filing mass bug reports? The debtags system is a little obtuse for ordinary users, is that a desirable filter? i.e. only those who can be bothered to try and understand it need apply. A little guidance could go a long way here. cheers, tim hall http://glastonburymusic.org.uk
