Hi all,

	With much delay and controversy, the 2.2 version of FHS is
hereby released:

		http://www.pathname.com/fhs/
		http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.2.pdf.gz

	Thank you to all those who contributed fixes and feedback.  The
only major revision from the final beta was the removal of /media: it
was my decision and I will happily debate in another thread.

Format changes:
	o The document has been reformatted and reworked, according to
	  the principle that it should be readable in a "flip open to
	  section I want" manner.  Options clearly labelled, language
	  clarified.

Major changes:
	o /lib, /usr/lib and /usr/local/lib options
	  added (/lib64, etc)
	o /etc/sgml option added.
	o /usr/include/g++ removed.
	o /usr/local/man added.
	o /usr/share/sgml added.
	o /var/local explicitly included.
	o /var/lib/hwclock explicitly added for adjtime.
	o hwclock moved from /sbin to /usr/sbin

Minor changes:
	o domainname removed from /bin examples.
	o setserial moved from /bin examples to Linux Annex.
	o adjtime, disktab, fdprm, lilo.conf, ttytype removed from
	  /etc examples.
	o /etc/confissue & /etc/mtools => /etc/issue and /etc/mtools.conf
	o /etc/mtab exception documented.
	o /lib/ld.so changed to /lib/ld*.
	o A small humorous footnote inserted.
	o /var/lock can also refer to non-device lock files.

Rusty.
