In this case, how do we organize projects utilizing multiple languages? 
We have C, perl, java, and jsp at least strewn throughout our projects. 
(There's a perl script used to compile the online help used in the PST 
for example). I have no interest in mixing perl scripts in with my java 
packages, or my jsp and html for that matter. Where do they go then? A 
concrete alternate suggestion for this scenario would be useful.

I certainly find the directory structures verbose and lengthy as well, 
so alternatives that handle all our use cases are welcome.
