So taxonomy fits the "classification of things". I've found the word taxonomy used within the categorization of product items.
Vocabulary is an overloaded term, and hence confusing.
I agree that vocabulary is confusing and needs to be changed. There have been many suggestions but perhaps taxonomy class would be best.
Renaming vocabulary would require a lot of API changes (renaming functions, renaming database columns, etc.), so let's not even consider that for Drupal 6. We can revisit renaming it to "taxonomy.module, taxonomies, terms" in a few months. :-) -- Larry Garfield AIM: LOLG42 larry@garfieldtech.com ICQ: 6817012 "If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into the possession of every one, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of it." -- Thomas Jefferson
