I talked about it at Fosdem. I'm sorry about not talking about it it Mar de la Plata. As an pityful excuse, I can say that I didn't talk about it because I was in Europe at the time. I did however talk a lot on the #debconf IRC channel about http://debtags.debian.net/search/, but I couldn't make wider announcements because it's currently hosted in a machine that wouldn't hold under a high load. >> Let's say that the idea of providing blend-specific tags is something worth >> playing with.

I know there's some people looking into screenshots; however, you don't need to wait for screenshots to create a blend-specific set of categories and give it a try.
