I guess I've been horribly misunderstood here?
I never said anything about renaming anything. Renaming is not part of
the discussion.
Big applications should be TLNS. Big applications are not part of the
discussion.
Distros for little utilities that *want* to live under some directory
could live in App with the app frameworks and app builders, but I think
it would be a beautiful thing if they chose bin:: instead.
