http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/arc/policies/install-locations/

After reviewing the opensolaris document, I feel that it is
incomplete. For example, it does not touch upon /bin, and /lib, (and
the diferences with /usr/bin and /usr/lib. My understanding was that
if a command or library needed to be available for system
bootstrapping it should be available in /bin or /lib. However, when it
isn't critical it should go in /usr/bin /usr/lib. (/usr is allowed to
be a seperate partition.)

Could someone who is responsible for the policy doc, please respond?

I also do not feel, that they fully address how new applications are
to be integrated into Solaris. (From a path point of view)

Thanks,
Brian
