"The openSUSE instance currently has over 30.000 users that are building 
almost 160.000 packages for 22 base distributions on 6 architectures."
Source:Portal:Build Service

As an user I would appreciate an additional functionality to search for 
 applications via schemes. For examble: If I would look for an app for 
project management and don't know the name. So I would like to search 
for office applications and look if there is an app available.

Is this idea discussed already?


Best regards

Wolfgang
