 * Okay – shortly after upgrading to 2.5 one of my categories stopped showing up
   on the write a post page. I can add it when I make a post and it then files it
   into the right category, but it doesn’t show up when I go to write a new post
   again.
 * The category also doesn’t show up under the Manage tab, however when I make a
   post with that category’s name by adding the category on the post page, it does
   put it into that category. If I click that category from an article, it does 
   show all the posts in that category.
 * It wouldn’t matter to me if wasn’t for the fact that I have multiple authors 
   on my blog and I’m the only one that can add categories. If they want to put 
   a post in that category then I have to go and change it after they’ve published
   the post.

 * Also, if I go to the manage category page and try to create the category, it 
   tells me I cannot because the category already exists…
