Perhaps it's worth adding to the FSH, if it's such a > standard usage? The use of /afs as the default location to mount a cell's root volume "root.afs" dates back at least as far as 1989. Throughout the 90s /afs became the root of the public global AFS file namespace. Organizations that deployed AFS for private namespaces did use other top-level mounts but all of the worldwide public namespace paths are rooted at /afs regardless of operating system; even AFS on Windows uses the \\AFS UNC path that is canonically equivalent to /afs. I believe that /afs should be added to the FHS as the standard mount for the public AFS and AuriStorFS file namespace. All recent AFS-family clients will interpret the path component below /afs/ as a cell name and search for the cell's location servers in DNS using SRV or AFSDB records. This permits any individual or organization that controls a domain to standup storage that can be accessed from any internet connected device with close to zero configuration provided the required access requirements are met.
