Hi, I would like to propose the addition of a new category - sci-vis. The category is intended for scientific visualisation tools. Many of these are currently in media-gfx and I don't think they belong with photo editors, image conversion tools etc. The category is quite big already and most of the ebuilds in there are maintained by quite different herds.
Looking through the tree these are the apps I think should be moved to sci-vis: media-gfx/epix media-gfx/fig2sxd media-gfx/gnuplot media-gfx/grace media-gfx/kpl media-gfx/labplot media-gfx/opendx media-gfx/opendx-samples media-gfx/qmatplot media-gfx/quickplot media-gfx/scigraphica media-gfx/spectromatic media-gfx/xd3d media-gfx/xgraph sci-misc/gwyddion sci-mathematics/qtiplot There could be others I have missed, and there are certainly more that I can see in bugzilla that will be added. I would appreciate feedback on this. If everyone is in agreement then I will make this proposal on the gentoo-dev list. Thanks, Marcus
