Thanks Alex. I have followed landley as well and he is pretty sharp especially on history. He does make a valid point that we really don't need the file system laid out the way it is, and i can see why people would like to have it set up more simply like stali. I myself was tempted with the simplicity but it just doesn't feel right to me.
One thought does occur to me, I have been quoted posix in this thread for reasons why features are not included and yet this isn't posix. That being said, i wouldn't mind trying to help add something such as a script for example to provide an option for the traditional layout for those who opt for it. The question would be the implementation method. Perhaps taking a play from "make suckless-box-install" and calling it "make traditional-install" or such. I will inevitably script something out for myself if this isn't available so i don't see any reason not to contribute unless its considered out of scope for the project.
