I wonder where to put software for scientific computing in other disciplines. Math somehow fits all computery science stuff that computes things, but what about a general 'science' category or chemistry and physics?

We discussed this a few years back and I think the consensus was it would be OK to add a science category, but then my work priorities changed and it fell off the radar. I have some things in wip that would go under science.
There are some things already poorly categoried due to the lack of a science category like biology/gromacs, maybe biology/chemtool, math/py-scipy, etc. I'm not suggesting they should all be moved, but it would be nice to stop adding to the confusion (for those of us who care about categories).
