Author FHS compliance?

According to Martin's post to debian-lsb
<http://lists.debian.org/debian-lsb/...1/msg00000.html>,
FHS 2.3 has just been released. I noticed in the Policy Manual (9.1.1)
that we only are required to comply with FHS 2.1.

Why the lag? With the new release, should we at least look towards 2.2
compliance? Or is there some kind of show-stopper that's preventing this?

I don't think there's a good reason (at least for 2.2) - it just
hasn't been done yet.

See:

#212434 - [PROPOSED] recommend FHS 2.2 rather than 2.1
#230217 - [PROPOSAL] Should update to Filesystem Hierarchy Standard FHS 2.3
