In thinking about tweaking our previous taxonomy before we get too 
far, Sheri turned me on to this 
site  http://www.evolve.org/pub/doc/sc_original_peace_room.html from 
EVOLVE http://www.evolve.org/pub/doc/evolve_about.html
which may give us some good ideas.  I don't know if we should use the 
exact terminolgy as they do in their categories around the wheel, 
because that would imply that we've come to a group decision to work 
within EVOLVE's framework (which we might, and many of us probably 
do, but we want to remain independent of any one movement), but their 
categories could at least remind us of anything our starting taxonomy 
may have missed.
