We are developing a Linux distribution and have found an urgent need for re-classification of Linux software. If the structure is well done it can be easilly used for generating menu's, custom selections in installers, etc. I studied LSB site and you are doing good work with core stuff and directories. However the classification we are looking for is far more general conserning only package group structure and group names (like RPM or DEB groups). Current logic in eg. RPMs is fully depending on source of the package, and it's very technical and platform oriented. New users find it often extremely hard to understand or use.
Does this kind of project fit to LSB? Do you know if this kind of project is already going on somewhere? Would LSB be intrested in co-operation if we start such a project?
