Should be in Internet instead of Sound & Video

[Pander]

Binary package hint: miro

Should be in Internet group in Applications 'start menu' instead of Sound & Video group.

Sound & Video is more for editors and media players which normally get started from browsers, command line or double clicking. Internet is more apporpriate for this application.

Isn't it a video player?
Internet seems to be more for Internet Communications (messengers, email, ftp, client-server...) and Web browsing.
I might disagree on that point.

JFI: on Kubuntu (KDE 4.2) it gets displayed in the "Multimedia" application menu - which I find appropriate.

For reference, the package's Categories are GTK;AudioVideo;TV;Player;P2P;News;FileTransfer; (from /usr/share/applications/miro.desktop)

Agreed with comment #1. A multi-player game that works over the internet still belongs in Games, not Internet. Many music clients are able to take URLs for playlists or mp3 streams yet they're in Sound not Internet. Inkscape is able to load SVG files over the internet, yet is in Graphics. I think the generalization to make is that the "primary purpose" of the tool overrides the underlying transmission protocol used for its data. Miro's primary purpose is for playing video (and sound) files which could come from the internet, but could also come from files on the computer. So I think its current placement in the menu is appropriate.
