I think it would be most efficient to list the general operating system
as the top-level, and then organize the operating system versions below
that.  The reasons are first that some operating systems have a lot of
releases that would crowd out the other ones, the other is that in some
cases the maintainers may wish to set symlinks (e.g., because sles9 and
suse91 are binary compatible) or share a common source or otherwise
organize the files more efficiently, which is better not done at the
top level.  So for example:

8.0.0/
  fedora/
  redhat/
  slackware/
  suse/
  windows/
