On AIX, Solaris, macOS, and Linux platforms the Chef Infra Client packages will now create the various configuration directories under `/etc/chef` as well as a sample `/etc/chef/client.rb` file to make it easier to get started running the client.
+### New Deprecations

+### Unified Mode in Custom Resources
+
+In Chef Infra Client 16 we introduced Unified Mode allowing you to collapse the sometimes confusing compile and converge phases into a single unified phase. Unified mode makes it easier to write and troubleshoot failures in custom resources and for Chef Infra Client 18 we plan to make this the default execution phase for custom resources. We've backported the unified mode feature to the Chef Infra Client 14 and 15 systems and for Chef Infra Client 17 we will now begin warning if resources don't explicitly set this new mode. Enabling unified mode now lets you validate that resources will continue to function as expected in Chef Infra Client 18. To enable unified mode in your resource add `unified_mode true` to the file.
