Dear all,
As part of the Multimedia usability project [1], we're going to set up a
prototype environment, similar to the "sandboxes" used by the Wikipedia
Usability initiative [2].
Importing all of Commons into the prototype would be overkill. As a
consequence, we're looking for a small subset of content from Commons to
use as a sample.
We would like to have a reasonable range of:
* filetypes
* file sizes
* licenses
* metadata
We don't necessarily need a wide range of topics.
Would you have any suggestion of category (or set of categories) to use
for this purpose?

What are you going to test there?
For many usages you could just use commons as repository, so you
wouldn't need to "import" anything.
