 When I create a new article (which WordPress calls a “post”), I assign it
 to a category using a list I defined when setting up the site. The problem
 comes when re-editing the post: in many instances, the system then adds
 the post to another category at random when saving. I can only surmize
 that WordPress contains a bug when working with nested post categories, so
 that’s where my investigations will start.

 I am using WP 2.8.5 on a standard English installation and the following
 active plugins.

 * Askimet
 * Duplicate Sidebar Widgets
 * Flexi Pages Widget
 * Google XML Sitemaps
 * Kimili Flash Embed
 * List Subpages
 * Markdown Extra
 * More Fields
 * PostMaster
