Yes, of course. We must decide the fs layout first but we are very close to a final design. > or perhaps fs layouts (plural), a standard one and common deviations. > (for example there is or was a linux file system hierarchy standard, > i don't know how strict it is and how closely it is followed by the > distributions.)

Inbound and outbound are the directories where data is stored which must be exported and imported (e.g. signed and encrypted PIN-mails). > data? in that case i would name the vars differently. The actual name is /usr/local/openca/data/ All recommendations are welcome. > why so deeply hidden? I want to devide into data, configuration and code. The organization of the code is now very close to the optimum but the configuration and the data is still mixed. We have the database (OpenCA::DB), the export/import-data and the configuration in the same directory. Many distributions place the configuration in /etc but the data in /var so we should support such a behaviour. > who is supposed to put them there and take it from there? The databases are used by all servers and the export and import are done by ca and RAServer.
