No, they're not compatible. SUSE chose to have more fine-grained and meaningful categories than what Fedora (and upstream, almost always) is using.
If we want to use upstream (== Fedora) menu categories, then we have to completely dump what we're using now and adopt theirs instead.
(not quite sure why you're mixing Fedora and upstream here?) What from [1] is missing in [2]? (I can see a few categories, to be honest, but nothing major) [1] http://en.opensuse.org/SUSE_Package_Conventions/Desktop_Menu#9.4._Category_L... [2] http://specifications.freedesktop.org/menu-spec/menu-spec-latest.html#catego... Note that: + it's possible to change the fdo specs to add new categories + if some categories are missing, then openSUSE does not respect the fd.o specs since those missing categories should be prefixed by X-. Maybe I'm being strong-headed, but I don't see the point of the current way if we don't try to push things upstream. It just harms us in the long term (since it's a kind of fork that we have to maintain).
