This is relatively unimportant. If it were up to me, I'd look to see if there's already what seems to be an existing, sane, config directory and, if found, use it. Perhaps confirm it with the user building it first; you could even ask for it. If not found, by all means create something in /usr/local/etc/opt/ or whatever floats your FHS-compliant boat at the time. But please try not to mess things up for existing users who've had to put up with quite enough of this kind of thing from package mantainers already.

This is very important. Think in terms of, say, trashing the database for half a million customers. I've already mentioned privately to Joel that I'm concerned about the quality control over there. This reinforces the feeling. This is the kind of thing which could de-orbit the ISS and cannot be excused. Most people think quality control means testing. It doesn't. It's mostly about how you design, and document, and implement all your procedures and processes so that things can *never* get forgotten, or left out, or put in, by accident. You need to get a very firm grip on those things now, before you do more or less anything else. It's the manufacturing equivalent of growing up. There must be somebody in the Cisco empire who deals with this stuff. Find him, and spend some quality time with him[*]. It'll be worth it. -- 73, Ged.
