hmm, ok. I'm still learning the Hurd filesystem layout. so far, it had
looked like the standard linux-ish tree with some extra bits stuck on (like
/hurd).
so it looks like the discussion was oriented towards abandoning the X11R6/*
heirarchy entirely, and moving bin/ lib/ and others to the more conventional
places in the filesystem?

I used to have a rule of thumb that I should lurk on a mailing list
for 2 weeks before shooting my mouth off. of course, one needs to ignore
one's own good advice every once in a while, to remind oneself of why that
advice is a good thing. :)

yes, I'm new to the Hurd. after 3 attempts, I finally found a box that it
would actually boot on (my laptop); but haven't gotten so far as to install
X or the like. (lack of networking doesn't help, and lack of time hurts
worse).
