[Koha-devel] General directory Structure 3.0 [IMPORTANT]

I could work with that, but suggest tweaking that proposal to:
* lib - all koha perl modules
* scripts/intranet-cgi and scripts/opac-cgi - the cgi-bin scripts
* scripts/admin - the helpers and daemons and so on to be installed
* koha-tmpl - the templates and languages and so on

This would make the forthcoming MakeMaker installer much simpler,
just like CPAN packages.

I agree with this.  I think there should be a web-based interface
for the database installation/upgrade too, as it will help avoid
the differences between various command shells and perl DBI.

Please don't switch to subversion.  If we are going to have the
pain of switching, please move to something which does distributed
(disconnected?) development and doesn't sulk when it can't reach
the master server.  Version Control is advancing: Darcs, git, ...

Hope you like the suggested tweaks,
