package categorization of hdfview

Greetings,

Sorry this is probably the wrong way to ask/report this.

The package "hdfview" is in section "libs." I'm wondering if this is an
error.

Other similar "viewer" applications are mostly in "science" or "misc" (e.g.
dbview, drawxtl, edfbrowser, figtree, gdis, jmol).

Technically Java application jars *could* be used as libraries, but other
Java application packages are not categorized that way (e.g. azureus: net;
jedit: editors).

Thanks,
Robert
