Sorry I couldn't make it today (and FWIW I will be quite short of time until mid September).
On the /srv issue: The FHS is deliberately not providing any layout on how to internally structure this, as there are at least two very popular ones (both of them mentioned in the FHS):
/srv/<service>/[<domain>/]... /srv/<domain>/<service>/...
As neither fits universally and Fedora is a general purpose distro we should not impose any layout on the users but allow them to freely use any layout they like. There are extended version of this argumentation on this list and f-m-l
E.g. no package (other than filesytem) should ever place/own anything under /srv. Packages that need a dummy or default data location should use /var instead.
I'm OK with this, just as long as we /have/ a policy to follow. +1 from me.
