Something like > sci-visualization or sci-plot. Yeah - I have to admit I favour the shorter category names personally. If w= e=20 are going to use a long one then I think it should be sci-visualisation (or= I=20 guess the American spelling sci-visualization) to keep it more general. The= re=20 any quite a few apps that deal with visualisation such as gwyddion and some= =20 of the molecule rendering packages. It was intended mainly for the plotting= =20 packages that are mostly in media-gfx right now.
