Heh, I'm teaching a class and noticed that we have at least *4* types  
of categories. There are the categories on the front page, the  
surveillance view categories, the display/notice/poller/threshd  
categories on the Asset page and also on the Asset page we have a drop  
down box with evil hard-coded categories.

I'd love to see them come together.

When the display/notice/poller/threshd categories were added, I  
created an "AssetInfoChanged" event to let RTC know that it had  
happened and to update itself so that the "category" assignments were  
dynamic. I plan to do something similar on Saturday for the bugfest  
for updating the SV categories so that one can create a rule in  
categories.xml along the lines of "categoryname = 'Production'" or  
"catincProduction & catincServers" and it will get updated on the fly.

Don't know if I'll get it done, so someone can feel free to jump ahead  
of me (grin).
