      <cm:name>categories</cm:name>
      <cm:categories>

         <!– Software Document Classification –>
         <cm:category view:childName="cm:generalclassifiable">
            <cm:name>[color=#FF0000]MBS[/color]</cm:name>[color=#FF0000] <!– CHANGE TO General –>[/color]
            <cm:subcategories>

Yes, sorry - there's a string replace going on to remove those first two levels.

That could be done better - I'll take a look.

Thanks,
