Heya, there's one topic that keeps popping up in various discussions: can't we get rid of /usr? The seperation of / and /usr doesn't make much sense anymore. We could make /usr a symlink to / for an interims phase and everything would be good for conservative folks who think the FHS is the holy bible. In the past more and more stuff has been moved from /usr to /. It's unlikely that it's going to become less. Also, right now I am aware of quite a few packages that don't get the seperation of / and /usr right and rely on stuff from /usr during early bootup. Let's eliminate this source of errors and clean up our file system layout a bit. Let's drop /usr for F12! And for the folks who think /usr is awesome because it allows mounting /usr ro while mounting / rw: it's not. Much more useful it would be if / in its entirety could be mounted ro. Debian allows that. It's not too hard to make that work on fedora as well. We wouldn't exactly be the first system without /usr as it seems. Hurd does that too as I was informed. That makes at least one thing they got right. Let the flamefest begin!
