Who decides what category the software in the Ubuntu Software Centre is filed under, and who can we report errors to?

I noticed when browsing through the Ubuntu Software Centre that some programs seem to be placed in the wrong categories, for example Pinta, an image editor, appears under Developer Tools (instead of Graphics) in my list of installed programs.
Is this a case of the developer incorrectly categorising their software when they uploaded it to the software centre, or does Canonical decided what goes where?
And if we notice an obvious mistake who do we inform, the software developer or file a bug somehow?
