While it's a bit heavy-handed to write it into the spec, it is a grand attempt to put Mother's First Law (thou shalt not mix your stuff with vendor stuff) into the general consciousness. If it becomes customary, we can get people to keep code and data separate (I find the usual /var or /home practice for www server data really annoying because the usage patterns of www data are much different than classic home directories or spool data, which makes a number of decisions on filesystem options difficult). > And in the case of the webmaster, I recommend electroshock therapy.
