Hi,

Argument not no have java in /usr/bin is that Java is subsistem inside
Linux (or any Unix) and therefore should have its own directories.
/usr/java sounds fine.

For example, nobody would like to copy contents of /usr/X11/bin to /usr/bin
just to follow Linux standard. Reason the same - X is a separate subsistem
inside Linux (or any Unix) and has right for its own file structure.
