I, for at least two, find this highly objectionable. This same arranagement
is true and equally undesirable in the UNIX envirnoment. My 370+
lists now have 881 files thrown together in one directory. I would much rather
see a subdirectory for each lists files and keep them separate from the files
that come with the distribution or at least be given a choice(I am not talking
about archives but the header, templates and other ancillary files. Maybe
you know what all the files are but those of us on the other end of the proprietary
stick it is not intuitively obvious and would like your peas to be kept separate
from our carrots. It is simply how things are done in a hiearchical file system.
