I think this is a great idea! I'm the maintainer of the "MPI" port
(mpich), and would volunteer to help out in any way with developing
this category. The LinuxFolks have a similar distribution called
ExtremeLinux which is a descendent of the Beowulf project; and
includes all of the tools necessary to make a parallel cluster. As a
category, I vote for any of: "hpc" (high performance computing),
"parallel" (parallel processing), or "cluster" (cluster computing).

P.S. I'm looking for graduate students in parallel computing
