Title:
  No "Servers" category in Ubuntu Software Center

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: software-center

  Sir,

  At present there is no "Servers" category in Ubuntu Software Center. This is a big limitation.
  In case server software is required to be installed, e.g. Web Server, Database Server, Email Server, File Server, FTP Server etc, the user has to first study literature and find out what all is required to be installed for a particular service. 

  Even in Synaptic Package manager, there is no simple facility.

  It would be much easier to install server software in case a category
  "Servers" is included in "Ubuntu Software Center". It is likely to
  prove helpful in teaching and promoting Ubuntu.

  Regards,
  Satish
