you mean that you agree on removing wx from comp names ?

the sample above is for categorized view while removing wx from comp name is to give a 
better look to the browse-by-name list...
also the problem of having so many components in "miscellaneous" is because almost no 
maintainer did set the right category for its components.
The EDIT form needs some revision to make this work and I'm currently busy with the new 
component list; I'll let you know when you can adjust your components' categories.

After everyone classifies his components I think we will get something much more 
equilibrated. Anyway I'm open to any new category proposal (see my previous mails for 
current list of categories).
