Greg Dunlap (aka [heyrocker](http://drupal.org/user/128537)) talks about what he covered in his Core Conversation topic of Content Deployment for Drupal 8 at DrupalCon Chicago. He talks about some of the existing deployment-related improvements that still exist in Drupal 7, and some of the plans for improving exportability and deployment in Drupal 8. Greg was recently named by Dries to be the first [Initiative Maintainer for Configuration Management in Drupal 8](//buytaert.net/configuration-management-in-drupal-8). David Strauss will also be helping as the architecture gatekeeper for the initiative, and for more information you can check out [Greg's blog post](http://nodeone.se/blogg/configuration-management-initiative) or his [detailed summary](http://groups.drupal.org/node/134569) from the DrupalCon conversations.
