16 I don't really have any opinion one way or the other on the rest of the
17 points, but I for one personally *like* qt and kde where it is at. I also
18 like the structure of having games under /usr. It makes sense, to me, on my
19 system. They are logically placed. At this point, only binaries-pkgs I've
20 installed are in opt (i.e. vmware, openoffice-bin, and ET). I like it this
21 way - I can easily allow prelink to exclude *one* dir.. Whether or not it
22 conforms to standards does not matter to me. It makes sense this way, and it
23 works well - IMO.

25 Optimizations from source and USE settings aside, the one thing I am *really*
26 beginning to love are the layouts of gentoo's filesystem. [plea]Please please
27 PLEASE don't mess with them too much.[/plea]
