1. Long names win.
2. I have not verified what other projects do about security artifacts.
My guess is nothing.
3. Questions about whether or not knox should be writing the security
stuff is a separate topic. I'm just moving the location. I do think we
should follow up on the topic especially given your (Larry) involvement
with the Hive security work.

I happen to prefer those particular long names.
Some short names are great like conf instead of config of configuration.
But:
1. topo - just yuck,
2. sec - I want to easily see the security dir,
3. wars - to implementation specific.
Have we verified with other projects where their security artifacts are?
My concern is that it may be more problematic to facilitate knox being able
to write to them by putting them in data than it is to not have knox write
to them at all. Is it possible that the server having to persist the master
and the like is a violation of some sort?

That is where security started out. However, it cannot go under conf as
the content of that directory is gerated at runtime by the server. In
Linux, conf directories (i.e. /etc/knox) are owned by by root and
therefore
the knox server (running as knox) cannot write there.

Would vote for long names.
Wondering whether security needs to go under conf?
Thanks

For KNOX-226 I have a patch almost ready that changes the GATEWAY_HOME
layout from
What I have right now changes from the current layout
{GATEWAY_HOME}/
conf/
security/
deployments
sandbox.xml
sandbox.war.*/
to this new layout which is more Linux friendly as conf and data will
be
symlinks /etc/knox/conf and /var/lib/knox/data respectively.
{GATEWAY_HOME}/
conf
topologies/
sandbox.xml
data
security/
deployments/
sandbox.war.*/
Does anyone have issues or concerns about this?
Any input on long names vs short names (sec vs security, wars vs
deployments, topo vs topologies, etc.)?
For example...
{GATEWAY_HOME}/
conf
topo/
sandbox.xml
data
sec/
wars/
sandbox.war.*/
