I guess I need to make sure I'm following Texrat correctly. Texrat (in Post #70) is introducing an additional layer of categorization, no? The arrangement for the currently existing platforms and devices would be

Category Old Legacy
Sub-Categories: 770; and with his definition, maybe N800?

Category Recent Legacy:
Sub-Categories: N810 (including WiMax), and N800 if it isn't in the above category?

Category Current
Sub-Category: N900

Category Future
Sub-Category: Anything else people want to speculate on?

Even in Texrat's arrangement, I'm not sure where Mer goes. All that makes his better is if you can move Sub-Categories among the Categories. Actually, I'm not even sure where his Categories go in the big scheme. Is there, for example, an Old Legacy category under Games and another Old Legacy category under Applications?

It seems easier to do it all in terms of OS version. So why not just have Chinook/Diablo, Fremantle, Harmattan as sub-categories of the Software categories (which is all I'm talking about). When Harmattan-Successor comes out, just add on another heading and leave the others alone. Yes, if we had started this way a year ago, there might have been a distinction between Chinook and Diablo. Fine.

As for Mer under the above OS-based categorization for Software, I don't think it needs to be in there at all. If I understand correctly, once Mer is running as intended, it will just run Fremantle software as is, no? So there is no need for a Mer category under Software; Fremantle is sufficient. Mer eventually will be fine as a subcategory of OS/Platform (where it's currently squished into Alternatives).

So, divide Software categories by platform, and have a checkmark-type filter.

Or for another approach, just divide up the Software Category exactly how the OS/Platform category is divided up. In my opinion it's of trivial importance to have Games and Apps and Design and Multimedia separated compared to the importance of separating platforms within Software. Ideally, we could separate by both type (e.g., Games vs. Apps) and platform, but if we get only one, I think Platform is far more important.

None of this means anything until we get some feedback on willingness and feasibility from Reggie. Reggie?
