aaargh, aaaaargh, aaaaaaaaaaargggggh,
that target of my question was seeking the thing to be
identical, I was giving proper reasoning that having
the website header names identical with submission category
name is a good thing - that's why these parts came in one
mail, ye know.
Anyway, I was using a category hint for some time, and I was
using the header names as on the website, those header names
were even the directory names before the xml adventure, I
have good experiences with that, it does seem logical to me
as it ensures new submissions are taking a good item in the
@category field, I did want to `make sync` lately, I wanted
to put sfnet-only macros up to gnu, I had to notice the
@category items on the latest gnu changes were different,
I did wonder about that aloud, as perhaps there was a
technical reason to have them different, i.e. having a
logic behind it that I can't see. I was trying to speak
softly trying to `correct` things as to what seems logical
to me in the first place. I should have been direct and
blunt in the first mail, and therefore...

Please change the @category names to bear the names being
visible on the website. Thank you.
