Replying via general.

This does indeed make a lot of sense. 'onedir' sounds pretty horrible.

It might worthwhile noting that salt was acquired by VMware which in
turn was acquired by broadcom a couple years ago.  I have no views if
this is significant for its future trajectory or not. 

I wonder if some people might be considering migrating to
Ansible or another alternative?

thanks for staying on top of things and keeping us informed.
