FHS and /var/www

["Carl Fürstenberg" <azatoth@gmail.com>]

FHS 2.3 specifies in
http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#SRVDATAFORSERVICESPROVIDEDBYSYSTEM
to use /srv for "Data for services provided by this system", for
example /srv/www for web root.
In the policy, the section
9.1.1(http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-opersys.html#s9.1.1)
specifies that FHS 2.3 is mandatory, except for some exception, and
the use of /var/www isn't included in that list.

Should we force all httpd:s to use /srv/www instead of /var/www, or
should an exception to the policy be added? Per
http://wiki.debian.org/Apache2LennyGoals it states that apache2 has
support for /srv/www, but it's still defaulting to /var/www.
