Quantum computing is a new, emerging area that has more and more software developed for it.

The quantum computing ports really don't fit any other category because they are essentially in a category of their own.

There are currently 50 quantum computing ports, the list is attached. In all likelihood more and more quantum computing ports will be added.

I suggest to add the real category "quantum-computing" and to move them there.
