Hi;

When I did some of the ports in the CAD category there was no science section
and while they could fit in math, I considered CAD was the most similar
category where they could belong. 

Nowadays we do have a science category, and furthermore we have real CAD ports
(basicly Aster and CalculiX) that are better suited for the CAD category. I
suggest that the following ports are moved to science:

felt
femlab (the website for this doesn't exist anymore)
freefem
kaskade

I also consider metis-edf should be in the math section, near to it's cousin
metis. 

This is all, of course, very subjective, so I won't suggest it again.

cheers,

    Pedro.
