## Categorization Team

Given the typical complexities that arise from categorization, and expecting
that regular maintainers are not expected to understand its minuteness
(according to the experience from [Debtags
Team](https://wiki.debian.org/Debtags/FAQ#Why_don.27t_you_just_ask_the_maintainers_to_tag_their_own_packages.3F)),
it is strongly recommended the creation of a team entrusted with authority to
manage issues related to categorization and carry their corresponding duties.

it is strongly recommended the creation of a team entrusted to manage issues
related to categorization, including but not limited to:
- Update documentation.
- Curate the categories.
- Update Continuous Integration.
- Integrate categorization over the current codebase.
Such a team should receive authority to carry out their duties:
- Coordinaton of efforts to import, integrate and update categorization of
packages.
- Disputations over categorization, especially corner cases.
- Decisions about when a Continuous Integration check for categorisation is
ready to be developed with gray/neutral failure statuses, and when a CI check
with a good track record in gray mode can be upgraded to red/blocking
failures.
