+What does a notation such as "works-with::image:raster" mean?
+------------------------------------------------------
+
+It means that the facet (the point of view from which we look at the packages)
+is "works-with", and that the tag (what kind of data this package can handle) 
+tag: "image:raster".
+
+In other words, "works-with::image:raster" should be read as "Looking at what
+kind of data a package can handle, this package handles raster images".
+
+..
+  TODO: Is this just a list of several attributes or does it include a further hierarchy?
+
+
+There seems to be a long and a short version of the tags e.g.  mail::smtp vs. Electronic Mail::SMTP Protocol. Where can we find a mapping of those?
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+You can find it on the web at http://debtags.alioth.debian.org/tags/vocabulary.gz
+
+If you have debtags installed in your system, you can also access the tag
+vocabulary locally at /var/lib/debtags/vocabulary
+
+
+It seems you renamed/removed some tags. When you do that, do you also apply these changes to already tagged packages?
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Yes we do.  It may happen, however, that if you look at the Packages file there
+are still the old tags: that is because the ftp masters may take time before
+installing the updated tag database in the archive.
