Thanks

The linked in group for "Salesforce Knowledge User Group" has a great thread on this here:

Here's the main details:

1) Download force.com ide 

2) Connect to the sandbox where you have the Data Categories 
3) Select only data categories when you will be asked to select components 
4) After they are downloaded, use "deploy to server" option to upload it to another sandbox 

Your data categories should appear there.

 

 

• By using this step, you will get xml file that contains all data category items. You can then edit the XML files and when you will deploy to the server. It's going to create/update the categories.
 
Hope this helps your effort, it certainly helped me out.
