they should be as long as the ones that are already on the site. Something like this:

Writer | Extensions for Writer | Extensions that could be used to extend the word 
processor module. 

or

Presentation|Presentation-Templates|Templates for presentations (Impress). 

The second part will be shown in the drop down menu. The last one should be only one 
sentence, that makes clear, what the category means at all. I had to examine where 
and how this description will be shown to the user. Maybe I had to work on the code 
again for that.

Yes, I remember ;-)

Could you please make a first draft for this? I can create you and Italo an account 
on the website and generate a new page for this, if that helps.
