Re: Wondering if ~/GNUstep shouldn't be ~/.GNUstep (i.e. hidden..)

[Stefan]

Personally, I think we should try to conform a little more to the 
freedesktop.org XDG directory structure 
(http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-0.6.html). In 
particular, I think we should put defaults in ~/.config or $XDG_CONFIG_HOME 
directory.

Now that GNUstep uses separate defaults files, we can just dump the files 
directly there.

If this were the case, we could simple move the ~/GNUstep directory structure 
to ~/ since it would only exist if somebody installed something to the HOME 
domain.

Anyway, it's just a thought.
