This description is functional, but in a survey of drupal  
administrators we found that they used categories to create  
categories, manage content through categorization, and navigate by  
content.  Several people described categorization as essential for  
organizations to represent their organizations structure and their  
business processes online.

I think we would be better off describing how it's used rather than  
introducing technical jargon like vocabularies and terms.

P.S. Anisa, are you back?  We missed you!
