+The problem is not that there is too much more than the consequence of the
+high number of task-*.
+
+rpmdrake, who is the main consumer of task-* rpm
+convention, show all of them as 1 single list. So basically, with lots of tasks-
+rpm, you just have a big unsorted list of category. Obviously not good for endusers.
+
+While it would be useful to group task into sound category, for the moment,
+we cannot. One way would be to encode this information in the name ( ie, decide
+that task-sound-foo and task-sound-bar are part of the sound category ).
+
+I am not sure that using the name for this is a good idea. It is quite poor,
+in term of metadata, and that's still a tree structure, while may a tag based
+one may be better ( like Debian do, for example ).
+
+More ever, it doesn't make much sense to have task-lamp-* task-nagios and task-kde4
+at the same level, they are not destined at the same public.
+
+Not to mention that installing rpm is ust half of the solution, configuration is
+the other one. While we can to some extend push configuration in the rpm, there
+is some that we cannot do reliably ( like adding a user to a group ).
+
+So maybe a wizard is a better solution than using a rpm that does magically everything.
