It will make the project look more professional which has some benefit
in reviews by IT departments of potential adopters or by technical
reviewers for blogs or journals.
I am not sure if this can be quantified but it is a benefit.
The cost seems pretty low since it should only affect the build and the
docs.

I disagree. This is an open source software project where decisions
should be made based on good design principles. The work is being done
by volunteers, so I don't see how "cost/benefit" applies.

Jacopo,
'nice' is not enough reason to change the directory structure.....
Please this is a business application where decisions should be taken

In my opinion it would be nice to review how we organize the code in
our components and switch to a directory layout that is more inline
with what other projects are doing, for example:
http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-the-standard-directory-layout.html
More specifically I would like to switch from, for example:
script/org/ofbiz/product/
src/org/ofbiz/product/
src/org/ofbiz/product/test/
to:
src/main/java/org/ofbiz/product/
src/main/minilang/org/ofbiz/product/
src/main/groovy/...
src/test/java/org/ofbiz/product/
What do you think?
