New category for (libre)office extensions: office-ext ?
Hiya,
there's a growing culture of libreoffice extensions, and (with the help of an
eclass prepared by scarabeus) it would be nice to get some of them into the
portage tree. Now we have to decide where to put them.
Suggestion: new category office-ext
What do you think?
Cheers, Andreas

No preference myself, but we already have e.g. app-emacs and www-apache
which (I guess?) reflect the fact that emacs lies under app-foo and
apache under www-bar.
That would suggest app-libreoffice?

+1 on app-libreoffice if they are only for LibreOffice. Can those extensions
work with app-office/openoffice-bin?

This may be confusing as people would expect these plugins to work
with both {open,libre}office packages. If these plugins are just for
libreoffice then I would prefer app-libreoffice like other people have
already suggested
