Hardy+1 Idea: GoboLinux Filesystem Hierarchy?

[Guilherme Augusto]

Hi

What would improve by using Gobolinux filesystem hierarchy? Ok, it is really
much more clear than the usual hierarchy (by replacing /etc, /usr, and
others with some meaningful names through symlinks). Since it uses symlinks,
the "legacy" filesystem hierarchy is still there, no compatibility issues
then. On the other hand, if someone already uses Linux, he probably got used
with the "normal" filesystem hierarchy. If it is someone's first time,
wouldn't it be confused to have a filesystem in a way and every Forum, HOWTO
and other help docs over the net telling how to do things with another
filesystem hierarchy?

I've already used Gobolinux. For me, Ubuntu doesn't need to change at this
point.


See ya.

Quem já passou por esta vida e não viveu
Pode ser mais, mas sabe menos do que eu
Porque a vida só se dá pra quem se deu
Pra quem amou, pra quem chorou, pra quem sofreu

Quem nunca curtiu uma paixão
Nunca vai ter nada, não
Não há mal pior do que a descrença
Mesmo o amor que não compensa
É melhor que a solidão

Abre os teus braços, meu irmão, deixa cair
Pra que somar se a gente pode dividir?
Eu francamente já não quero nem saber
De quem não vai porque tem medo de sofrer

Ai de quem não rasga o coração
Esse não vai ter perdão
