Many people were concerned about the mass exodus of etc/, and many have expressed a desire (privately or otherwise) for these files to return- some of these folks represent downstreams or consumer projects that went through the painful move the first time and would happily go through the pain again to restore the status quo. This does mean that we'd end up with a structure that's not compatible with stable/12, but is compatible with every branch before it. If you have an opinion for or against. please speak up now. I'd like to make sure we're moving in the correct direction as a developer community. Thanks, Kyle Evans [0] https://reviews.freebsd.org/D23690
