They had a presentation on the IV Free Software International Forum in Porto Alegre (Brazil) this year and I can assure you I didn't hear a lot of good things about this (I didn't actually attend to the thing, but other DD's did). It seems like a mess of symlinks and they say it doesn't need 'package management' when it actually has a bunch of scripts to handle the symlink 'farm' they grow on /usr/bin and such. Doesn't seem like a clean solution to me, no no no... It also seems like they want to have each package installed in its own directory, which I think sucks tremendously... I hated that when I lived with windows... I always wanted to have all my binaries in the PATH, etc. And the real end user does not even care about that. I don't really care about /. I think path abstraction should be achieved by graphical file management utilities like Nautilus, not by messing with something that's actually working, to then cause more problems.
