- Elektra – The Configuration Framework for Everyone

Everything that uses configuration files should report where they're located
It should also report the syntax and so on, and actually you want a way to directly modify configuration values. So if you think this through, you will end up with something like https://www.libelektra.org

Let’s solidify the BSDs on the desktop!
While I'd like to see something like this, I'm not sure if it would have a realistic chance to be accepted by most BSD users. Still I'd like to propose Elektra for that purpose. It's permissively licensed (BSD 3-clause), well thought-out and documented, very flexible and upstream would be happy to work together with the BSDs. I also like their "context-aware configuration" model. They haven't been terribly successful on Linux as each and every system component is being maintained by someone else, but on a BSD with full control over a dependable base system it has a lot of potential.

What does everyone use for automating setting up a new VPS?
I'm using rudder (https://www.rudder.io/), it's based on cfengine (https://cfengine.com/). But this is more enterprise ready, you'll be fine with lightweight ansible. Nice thing is, that rudder ensures compliance by periodically executing all defined rules on all endpoints.
