"makes desktop more usable" is a subjective measurement, in this example, not objective. The secondary category for a "Service" would be related to the service it provides. For example, an OBEX FTP service should have FileTransfer as an additional category. Vino would have RemoteAccess. I don't think having additional categories for subjective metrics such as "makes *my* desktop prettier for *me*" is appropriate for a standardized specification. On top of the secondary categories, we also have the reserved categories for Screensaver, TrayIcon, and Applet to use. These probably all fit the type of "apps" you want to have a new special Prettification category for. -- dobey _______________________________________________ xdg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xdg
