IMHO the best partitioning schemes are (and should be) context specific.  

The way I partitiona multiuser server is totally different to how I'll be 
doing a dev box for the company.  For the multiuser server I'll be using 
quite a few partitions (for reasons of security and protection from 
users).  For a dev box I'll probably slap everything on one filesystem 
unless there is a project related reason to do otherwise.

Cheers,

Rob
