But that's the trouble - half the people in this thread have assumed |
| 8 |
that /srv would be remote mounted in from somewhere, others have assumed |
| 9 |
it would be local data only, and others have thought it *should* be |
| 10 |
sharable. |

Indeed, there's even been variation of opinion of whether or not /var |
| 13 |
can be mounted in from a remote source (I choked when I saw that, but |
| 14 |
hey, /var-is-local-machine-specific-only is just the way I learned it). |

Point being that basic assumption in our own user base are wide and |
| 17 |
varied, and so regardless of what FHS or LSB or our Devs or anyone else |
| 18 |
says, there will be a wide variation of how people will want to do it on |
| 19 |
their own machines / at their own sites. |

Gentoo's greatest strength is it's flexibility and it's lack of imposed |
| 22 |
dogma. Please don't loose sight of that precious, wondrous and, [in |
| 23 |
Linux distro space] unique aspect of your work. |
