 Hi, I posted many messages for more than a year of the forums
 (http://wordpress.org/support/topic/229543?replies=13 and
 http://wordpress.org/support/topic/340552?replies=9) concerning category
 management. It appears WP 2.9 doesn't fix the bug which has been reported
 on several tickets:

 Sub categories automatically append a dash followed by the name of the
 parent
 http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/10712

 Child categories error out as duplicates even if slugs and parent
 categories are different
 http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/9335

 I still can't create duplicate categories/slugs and I don't want to hack
 Wordpress core files, which is the solution provided on ticket #9335...

 It's a major issue when you use Wordpress as a CMS and there are a lot of
 comments and messages about it. Wordpress is the best blog platform but
 this bug is ruining any attempt to use it as a real CMS.

 What can I do if I want to work with these categories:

 Books

 - News

 -- Fantasy

 -- RPG

 - Reviews

 -- Fantasy

 -- RPG

 Videogames

 - News

 -- Fantasy

 -- RPG

 - Reviews

 -- Fantasy

 Any help? <:)
