I disagree here (nb - I am not a compsci). I think to begin with we should have the /usr dichotamy, with the intention to change it later, when hurd no longer has to worry so much about being linux compatible. > Making / and /usr separate directories will introduce problems, too, > so I'd rather side with the GNU standards on this issue. No - I'd rather solve these problems right now.
