Comment(by drkirkby):

 Replying to [comment:3 AlexGhitza]:
 > Not a problem, I was just doing some cleaning.  The simplest solution
 might be to add a new component called "aaa-misc" that would catch the
 tickets where the component has not been set.  Then once in a while we can
 sift through that and classify tickets, without "algebra" getting
 polluted.

 I imagine you must get this quite a lot, which is a bit of a waste of your
 time. To be honest, I might have left this at "algebra" deliberately, as
 ATLAS is an acronym for "Automatically Tuned Linear Algebra System". But I
 know I do occasionally leave things at "algebra" by mistake.

 As a non-mathematician, I often have difficulty in knowing what best to
 classify something under.

 It's arguable if this should go under "linear algebra" rather than
 "packages". I really don't know half the time. To me, "packages" seems a
 bit too wide.

 I think it would be useful if there were tick boxes, and one could tick a
 few. The other one to get ATLAS working on HP-UX (#9815) could reasonably
 be in "linear algebra", "packages" and "porting".
