create a top-level "lib" directory for all static / read-only artifacts -

name than "lib" - but this is consitent with Linux / Unix lib / Library dirs.

I'm not against moving these resources to a common directory, but I think we should
really stay away from naming that directory as "lib". There's already a lot
of confusion around this for users moving from previous AS versions (since we no longer
have JBOSS_HOME/lib or JBOSS_HOME/server/<servername>/lib containing the server
level jars). Naming this directory as "lib" is just going to add to that
confusion.
Top-level directory tidy-up
---------------------------
Key: AS7-2274
URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-2274
Project: Application Server 7
Issue Type: Enhancement
Components: Server
Affects Versions: 7.1.0.Alpha1
Environment: all
Reporter: Rich Sharples
Assignee: Jason Greene
Labels: eap6-ux
Fix For: 7.1.0.Beta1
There is a of stuff in the top-leve directory - much of which, most users will never need
to see.
0. create a top-level "lib" directory for all static / read-only artifacts -
modules, schemas, bundles, welcome-content. It's quite possible that there is a better
name than "lib" - but this is consitent with Linux / Unix lib / Library dirs.
1. Rename and move <JBOSS-HOME>/docs
<JBOSS-HOME>/docs contains no docs. it contains schemas and an odd subdirectory
with a HornetQ config. I suggest we rename it "schemas" and hide it under
"lib". As for examples/configs dir. - is it required by anything ?
2. Move app-client under lib - doesn't need to be in the top-level directory
3. Move jboss-modules.jar under lib
This will leave JBOSS-HOME with just :
README.txt
copyright.txt
License.txt
bin
domain
standalone
Also - any reason README and LICENSE are upper-case but copyright is lower ?
