Tech/Engineering - IT (Information Technology) / Red Hat Linux
English term or phrase: Dewey Decimal library file system
We heard similar noises from an experienced Linux kernel developer. He said that Red Hat's change was like shuffling all the cards in an old fashioned ***Dewey Decimal library file system*** – the card you want is still there, but finding it is no easy task – and that this would cause problems for CentOS, which is an economic threat to Red Hat.
只知道Dewey Decimal system叫“杜威十进分类法”。

使用杜威十进分类法的卡片式目录
Explanation:
file system 是指 filing system, 在这里就是指 card catalogue, 卡片式目录

这应该其实是图书馆学的问题，不是IT.

我认为作者的焦点不是分类法本身，而是哪堆卡片，因为比喻的要点就是打乱了次序就会很难找，暗示这是指人手操作的目录。另外，我也不认为杜威分类法本身是 old fashioned 的，但是实实在在的卡片就肯定是过时的东西了。(使用杜威分类法的线上目录完全没有过时，也没有打乱了次序就会很难找这种事。)

Asker: 杜威十进制图书分类法？


Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Francis Fine: Or, a simpler version: 杜威图书分类[编卡]法[系统]。 This，of course, completely omit mentioning the word "decimal."

  -> Thanks. I don’t think omitting “decimal” would be a problem, since I feel the emphasis is on the physical aspect of the cards. But I totally agree that my suggestion is probably overly wordy.
