According to http://standards.freedesktop.org/menu-spec/latest/apa.html,
"Note that at least one Main Category must be included in the desktop entry's

Or is it a "Game" or "Education"?

    Originally OCM was in the "Internet" main category, but I was told that it was wrong, and was told to put it under "Geography". None of the main categories seem to fit right, so if you have a suggestion, please feel free.

    The Patch puts it in the "Utilities" Category, where QLandkarteGT is located in Debian as well.
    "Marble" (KDE Desktop Globe) is in Education/Geography
    "AGTL" is in Office/Geography
    Personally I find "Game" the best, because GC is still a game. What I don't know is if games are limited to "computer only games", that is games played (mostly) at the computer. For may mystery-caches that's probably true, so why not. A software for managing a sports tournament I would probably search in games first, but not in office, internet or education.
    Another reason for putting it in the Game category would be, that in many enterprises you're not allowed to play games while on work, so putting it there seems to be right.
