I like this nested grouping.
If you decide to keep the structure flat, it would still be useful to prefix
the directory names with ivy-, eclipse- to indicate where they belong.
We have typically tried to follow the package naming structure in our
directory names, so for example:
felix/
ipojo/
arch/
src/
composite/
src/
So, the org.apache.felix.ipojo.arch package subtree is under the arch
module, while the org.apache.felix.ipojo.composite subtree is under the
composite module. Of course, this doesn't always work out exactly, like
ipojo/core/ which actually contains the org.apache.felix.ipojo package.
At any rate, the main scheme was to try to follow the package root of
each subproject/module (e.g., http.jetty is in
org.apache.felix.http.jetty). Most of this was a result of our effort to
reduce redundancy because we originally had lots of long, not very
useful, redundant directory names.
Of course, there is no hard and fast rule; for example, we name the
maven plugins differently to follow maven conventions. However,
consistency is nice when you can achieve it.

David Savage commented on FELIX-1357:
-------------------------------------
Suggestion to move to a nested directory structure that looks like:
$felix-svn/sigil/build.xml
$felix-svn/sigil/common/core/... (was
$felix-svn/sigil/org.cauldron.bld.core)
$felix-svn/sigil/ivy/plugin/... (was $felix/sigil/bld-ivy)
$felix-svn/sigil/eclipse/core (was $felix-svn/sigil/org.cauldron.sigil.core
$felix-svn/sigil/eclipse/ui (was $felix-svn/sigil/org.cauldron.sigil.ui
...
This way if/when we bring in support for other tools such as netbeans,
maven we can put the src under appropriate sub dirs? Of course could also
apply the YAGNI principle and keep a flat top level directory structure?
Simplify sigil directory structure - get rid of redundant information
from directory names
