Great!
We really should standardise this and that's why it is just now documented at

    http://people.debian.org/~tille/cdd/ap-bts.en.html#s-howto_itp

I just crosspost this also to debian-med list for the reason that people
notice this.  I would suggest to go over all WNPP bugs which are tagged
[Med] or [Biology] at random places (well, not really random, but not as
suggested here) and change this to [med] in the end of the short description
(please mind also the not about lower cases in the tag).

Thanks for your comment, Ben.

Kind regards

           Andreas.
