cleaning the Pharo Catalog

Hi guys,

I will update the Catalog for Pharo 6 and I was wondering if we should keep the “Unsorted” category… this corresponds with projects present in old MetacelloRepository repo, I added it at the beginning because I did not want those project to be lost, but in fact they are more or less abandonware and definitively, they were not very well kept (no descriptions, no tags and even worst, many of them will not load fine).
So what do you think? should I keep them?

Split into two categories? Those with full descriptions likely to load
and those probably needing some updates?

I like this option. Two tabs. A tab "PharoX" and a tab "Legacy" could be
an idea.

But there are different levels of legacy.  Once version back maybe not
so bad.  Several versions back likely worse.  So maybe Pharo6, Pharo5,
Legacy ?  And it might be nice for Legacy to indicate which version
Pharo they were associated with, but probably not enough value for
such effort.

we should sit with Pavel & christophe because package validation for
distribution is on Pavel's roadmap and this is

probably the time to activate it.
