I understand that protocol and slicc directories are logically underneath Ruby, but I strongly content the small benefit of moving those directories does not justify the work it will create downstream. There is a lot of code that works on top of the current directory structure. I would really appreciate if we didn't make that change.
Also Ruby already implements crossbars, snoop filters, and other interconnect/coherence structures. Why not just use those rather than add a new interconnect subdir?
