@chip- I think there is a good chance of a lot of new tags being added. Everyone agrees we need to be able to filter search results based on tags and the current set of tags doesn't do it.<div><br></div><div>What does it hurt to create a list of tag and definitions that the theme review team thinks would be useful and we could review fairly?<div>
<br></div><div>I think it would be better if we brainstormed a list without any premptive doomsaying, so I can take it back to the THX38 meeting as the theme review teams ideas on new tags, instead of just <span></span>bringing own ideas.<br>

<div dir="ltr">Remember: those tags are, primarily, for *users* rather than for developers. To the end user: what's the tangible difference between "responsive" and "adaptive"? In this case, "end user" could be both the site owner (the one who chooses and installs the Theme) or the site visitor (who would view the website via devices with various screen sizes).<div>

I agree we need to find the definition that is most useful to end users and two tags with the same definition is probably confusing. The problem is some end users are more sophisticated than others. Some know what responsive means, some don't. That said, we shouldn't equate the two, because they are different. GIve me a little time and I will propose some new definitions.<div>
<br></div><div>@Ulrich We can't just add tags to the guidelines. They need to be supported by core. As part of the THX38 project this will most likely happening. I'm hoping to go to the next THX38 meeting with a list of tags that we, as theme reviewers, want added and feel like we can review properly.</div>
