+1 to addison & kathleen's sentiments. <br><br>I don't think this really has benefits, compared to the downsides. I also think it takes away some of the creativity with using modules for different purposes. <br>

I completely agree with Addison's sentiments here.<br><br>With many modules being appropriate for all types of sites, we'll end up with a lot of noise in those categories preventing people from really finding modules that are specifically appropriate for their type of website. How about separating the "always applicable" modules from the type-specific modules?<br>
<br>I found the tags a bit confusing. I wasn't quite sure what to put. Help text that is specific to this context would be good, instead of the default general help for freetagging.<br><br clear="all">--<br><font color="#888888">Kathleen Murtagh</font><div>

Hm, while I get trying to categorize, I just want to point out that a vast majority of modules will select very single "Type of site" so I'm not sure that list is all that helpful. :-/ Most modules good for an E-learning site are probably good for lots of other kinds of sites too.<br>
<br>
Just curious are we going to "maintain" the tags list of just let module owners do what they will. I can see people doing weird things like --menus, nice, dropdown, CSS, "add1suns modules", "best module evar", "must have" -- etc. It will say something about the maintainer, dependng what they put so I'm not that pressed, but others may get in a froth over it. ;-)<br>

Hello all,<br>
<br>
in participation of the new project pages and navigation as envisioned<br>
by Mark Boulton (see [1] and [2]), we added two new vocabularies to<br>
the project pages on <a href="http://drupal.org" target="_blank">drupal.org</a>.<br>
<br>
We decided to add these in preparation of the new design so that we'd<br>
have enough data by the time we launch the new <a href="http://drupal.org" target="_blank">drupal.org</a> (and so we<br>
can do proper performance testing of the Solr integration).<br>
<br>
If you edit your project(s), you'll see the two new vocabularies that<br>
I'm talking about, and how they relate to the designs in [1] and [2].<br>
<br>

Thanks!<br>
