Does the verb "to relegate" always have negative connotations?

Asked by wabarr (458points) May 13th, 2008

I know there is a common usage which implies demotion. However, this word sometimes comes up in technical scientific literature in reference to classifying some thing/concept to a particular category. Doe this word always carry a pejorative connotation to you?
