In my understanding, while /etc is for config files per se, I took it to
understand that it is for configuration files that the local system is
using only. So, really anything that is not used to configure cobbler
itself should probably not be in /etc.  Any template file that is used by
cobbler to generate kickstarts/configs that are pushed out I would consider
application data, and thus should be in /var.

That's just my $0.02 though.
