Suggestions? I can live with contrib. The things inside are
contributions which are not directly needed in the resulting
product and by now our 'community' is quiet small.

The only contrib folder I recommend to rename is './river/contrib'
There is the release building stuff which definitely is not
only a contrib!

What bugs me more is the _essential_ setup stuff like
schema definitions and configurations buried deep in the
'doc' folders. They should really be moved up to 'conf/setup' folders.
