Dear All,<= br>
FreeBSD could benefit from reorganizing its directory structure t= o=20 accommodate non-X Window managers more effectively. Currently, these=20 managers are all placed under the "x11" directories, which may not=20 accurately represent their nature. A more intuitive approach could be to introduce a new "display" directory that encompasses various display=20 managers.=20 Here's a proposed reorganization:

display/<= br>
  =E2=94=9C=E2=94=80 x11/
  = =E2=94=82   =E2=94=94=E2=94=80...
  =E2=94=82=
  =E2=94=9C=E2=94=80 wayland/
  =E2= =94=82   =E2=94=9C=E2=94=80 wayland-wm/
  =E2= =94=82   =E2=94=94=E2=94=80 ...
  =E2=94=82=
  =E2=94=94=E2=94=80 arcan/
 &nbs= p;    =E2=94=94=E2=94=80 arcan-wm/
 &n= bsp;        =E2=94=94=E2=94=80 durden= /

In this reorganized = structure, all display-related components, including X Window managers, Wayland-related components, and "Arcan" with its=20 window manager "durden," are grouped together under the "display"=20 directory. This layout creates a more unified and intuitive organization for managing different types of display managers on FreeBSD.
