my pragmatic answer is that i "own" tex/latex/psnfss so that should be
left alone,
I agree. psnfss is an instance of `package'.
and others shoyld use tex/latex/fonts like they use misc
Hmm. Then do we really need to have a special case texmf/tex/latex/fonts/?
How about putting the singular .sty's/.fd's directly in misc/?
