Yes, but those categories are quite orthogonal to the problem of finding a patch suitable for a new contributor or attract attention of other groups of people. Note that those tags wouldn't be a sub category, just a parallel thing where a patch could have 0, 1 or n predefined tags, with the search bar allowing easy access to the combination you want. > I still think that adding an abstract/description field > as discussed in 3c53e8aa-b53f-43c2-b3c6-fa71e18a4...@yesql.se would be helpful > but I haven't had time to work on that. Agreed, but it doesn't seem to help apart from being a good indication that this is likely not a good choice for a new contributor.
