[atlas] Categorize probes (feature request)

Hi Klaus, Gilles,

thank you for describing the feature that you would like to see.

We already have this on the roadmap, listed under "More control over 
probe selection - Enable choice of probes based on the type of 
connection": http://roadmap.ripe.net/ripe-atlas/

However, as you can see on the roadmap, we have many features that we 
are working on, and few more in the planning; also, during RIPE meeting 
we received few more that will make it to the "requested" column...

Posting your wish on the mailing list will raise the priority of your 
requested feature, so, everyone, please keep on doing that!

You can expect that we will get to work on this "soon", but I can't give 
you any time estimates yet on when will this be implemented.

Kind regards,
Vesna
