At linuxfromscratch we follow the LSB/FHS closely.

http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/stable/prologue/standards.html

There are some minor things that we would change (e.g. remove ed), but LFS is designed primarily as a learning project, even though it has been the basis of some production systems.

We would like FHS to remain relevant so those that learn from us will have a good resource for the organization of Unix and Linux systems.

I think the first question would be: who is following the FHS? If this
are only Linux distributions, the question is already answered.

OpenBSD is an example of an actively maintained non-Linux system
that effectively more or less follows the FHS, with a small number
of minor violations:

  * /boot is an executable binary file rather than a directory
  * /media /opt /srv are neither needed nor used
  * /run is called /var/run instead
  * dmesg mknod are in /sbin rather than /bin
  * false and true are builtins to all shells and in /usr/bin
  * login more sed su gzip netstat are in /usr/bin
  * mount and umount are in /sbin
  * ping is in /sbin
  * /etc/opt is neither needed nor used
  * /usr/lib/sendmail no longer exists
  * /usr/local/etc /usr/local/src are neither needed nor used
  * /var/lib local lock opt are neither needed nor used
  * /var/tmp is a symbolic link to /tmp

Yours,
   Ingo
