I don't understand what you guys mean by this.  How are tags and

template author to decide if they display categories, tags, or both?

I don't really see how you would plan to disable one or the other on a
per weblog basis.  Would that mean all of the editing UI would remove
any references to them?  Would all of the rendering have to be sensitive
to the fact that weblog XXX doesn't support categories?  That sounds
very confusing to me.


If categories are disabled then:
- do not show category combo box on weblog edit page
- do not show category page in menu
- do not show categories in RSS and Atom feeds
- do not show include <categories> element for cats in APP service doc

but category is not an optional attribute of an entry right now.


If tags are disabled then:
- do not show tags field in weblog editor page
- do not show tags in RSS and Atom feeds
- do not show include <categories> element for tags in APP service doc

I don't understand the need for all of these, I think the last 2 are implied simply by not entering any tags for an entry right?


I think that's all we'd need to do and none of those are hard to implement.

Well, I think we should think about this a little bit more before we dive in. IMO some of these things probably aren't necessary, and some of them may just cause more confusion.
