Tags for my packages

My database is only infrequently updated. The tags are in a very bad
inconsistent state and need a team to properly set them up and fill
them.

In my package tool you are welcome to add any tags you like to your
packages. This is _different_ from the "Task" system. Talk to the
tasksel maintainer for that one.

http://debian.vitavonni.de/packagebrowser/index.cgi?tags=biology

This is the list of 25 packages (do look in "applications", too) of
packages that have the "biology" tag assigned to them.

The data will infrequently be exported (by enrico) to be used in
"synaptic-debtags", "tagcolledit" and an upcoming KDE package manager.

If you prefer using "tagcolledit" for editing the packages, that is just
fine for me. I can import these change files.

Greetings,
Erich Schubert
