== About ==

HaikuDepotServer (HDS) is the web application server part of the HaikuDepot GUI package manager for Haiku.

The main purposes of HaikuDepotServer are to let maintainers and users:

 * list and search available packages (by filtering the list by categories and/or search terms).
 * add additional information about a package such as screen shots and icons to show up in HaikuDepot.
 * add and translate certain package information.
 * upload user ratings and comments.

== Package Categorization ==

 * _devel packages do not get assigned to a category unless its main sibling package is itself categorized  (i.e., not a library).
 * Library packages do not get assigned to a category unless they contain an application that serves a purpose other than supporting the library itself, in which case it gets assigned to the System and Utilities category.
 * _debuginfo packages, game data packages and the ca_root_certificate package do not get assigned to a category.

== Title localization ==

 * Only GUI application packages should have their titles localized and _$arch suffixes removed.
