And a suggestion: It might be good to debate here how the database should be designed to best do it job. Fx. would it be an idea to make a set of (not necessarily disjunkt/non-intersecting) categories/ labels objects/libs could fit in - like math, audio, control, graphic (inspired by http://puredata.info/dev/PdLibraries)? I mean, there must be a quite a few opinions on how the database could be organized in order to be of most use.
It would be nice if things could be "tagged" with keywords, rather than categorized. That way, there's no need to think of every category or decide on all keywords in advance, people could add keywords to objects as they saw fit.
Yeah, that's the idea. Though there isn't really a way to do a user-
generated taxonomy, only a developer generated taxonomy. Really, it
would be generated by who ever writes the help patches.
