If you refer to ancient discussion, especially to a large thread
like that one, please spend a bit more time to summarize it. It
is between one person spends a bit more time, and all others
independently go there and read.
The essense of the proposal [1] back then was to move all the source
file to src/, rename t/ to testsuite. And I think [2] is a pretty
good summary of the common feeling back then that explains why the
proposal died out:
Moving everything into src/ and calling it "organized" doesn't
actually accomplish much other than perhaps making the README
file more visible to newbs; things are _still_ a mess, just a
mess with four more letters...
This round is slightly more organized, so many points the old thread
raised would not apply, I suspect.
