Project Browser - Discussion of updating categories on project pages
October 4th, 10:00-10:45 AM ET, 14:00 to 14:45 UTC
BoF Description
The Project Browser Initiative team is evaluating current project pages (module pages) to determine if the category mappings should be updated.
We are evaluating:
- are all the categories still needed
- should some categories be combined
- are there missing categories
- should we limit the number of categories that a module can be associated with
- should we add a "Use Case" field A new field on the project page that would allow site builders and those new to Drupal to find modules that fit the use case of what they want their Drupal site to accomplish. Use Cases would select modules across multiple categories. Examples might be a storefront. a publishing workflow or a school website.
If you are a sitebuilder that can help us determine how categories help in your search for modules or a module maintainer with thoughts on categories, please join us

leslieg commentedLots od good discussion around how to change the catg=egories t make thme more useful while not having 55 of them. Sizanne suggested starting over rather than trying to change what is currently being used. Group decided that starting with a minimal number of categories and only adding new ones if needed.
