I was writing up reply to other thread at the moment. But lets continue here since you ask. I don't have a strong opinion, but I find directories neat. This is because we have many devices spec files, conformance files and it's expected to grow. I have transports directory and place code in there. Since latex spec doesn't have good way to include and refer sub section, we have many files. 19 devices * 3 spec files + 3 transports * 3 spec files. And once spec is in its own directory, things should be self-sufficient. Only touch points will be in common areas which should be less frequent.
