classification on gems
Problem:
if I want to find audio-related libraries, I have to search audio,
mp3, ogg ... to get some libraries.
If we have category/tag on gems, then it will be much easy.
For examples,

support category http://godashboard.appspot.com/project
# support tag

There's been several requests for this, but it requires that we need to extend Gem::Specification to accept metadata, but this is no easy task :( Hop on #rubygems on IRC sometime and ask jbarnette or drbrain about it! Definitely peruse that code in RubyGems proper, we're open to submissions if you can nail a good implementation.
Closing this one, feel free to continue future development discussion on the Gemcutter mailing list.
