Here are the previous discussions on having a cleaner directory structure for Drupa. It has several advantages: - Isolation of Drupal core from everything else. - Easier upgradability. - Less clutter in the public_html/www directory. As a bonus, this makes symbolic linking for multi-sites easier. http://drupal.org/node/22269 http://drupal.org/node/22336 http://lists.drupal.org/archives/development/2005-05/msg00332.html One objection is CVS history. This can be addressed by moving the files at the backend (requires manual mucking around, but doable). On 12/28/05, Karoly Negyesi <karoly@negyesi.net> wrote:

As 4.7 continues to grow and new files are added or about to be added (like the forthcoming textarea patch, w00t indeed!), I think it's time for an early spring cleaning on this folder. I recommend the following:
delete /misc
create: /images /images/logos (for those drupal powered logos) /scripts (merge with shell scripts perhaps?) /styles
Maybe /misc/logos , /misc/scripts and misc/styles?
