To consider the issue, we looked at Boost's type_traits, where all the traits are in the same directory, as well as libraries like MPL, where

appears to move to <boost/mpl/arithmetic/plus.hpp> (from <boost/mpl/plus.hpp>) - at least, the "arithmetic" directory is there.
Actually, it's the other way around -- they *used* to reside inside the directory, but at some point were moved to the top level. There are pros and cons to both ways.
Has there been a discussion about this on Boost or elsewhere, in the past, and if so, do you have a subject line I could search for? It could be helpful, to review those pros and cons. Regards, Terje
