Unfortunately, due to timezones and such, the mbone category had already been created. Since speak freely interoperates with the MBone tools, it was put in the MBone category. There is one multicast-only tool in the mbone category (rtpmon); all of the others work with unicast too (e.g. you can use vat in unicast mode just like speak freely). All of these tools could arguably fit in a "multimedia" category (although there's not much point in using imm or nte using unicast). Bill
