I like it. In General its always up to the site maintainer, ofc. But |
| 13 |
this would get rid of beasts like /chroot in favour of /srv/bind , |
| 14 |
Which is far more usable in my view. |

Don't get me started on /var for site specific data ( /var is shared |
| 17 |
across NFS along with / on some systems. But no, we must overlay-bind |
| 18 |
parts from /var due to somones marvellous idea that we shall store site |
| 19 |
specific data on it, not system... *mutter*) |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
In all, I'm very much in favour of /srv. |
