Requests for this feature go all the way back to the days of Drupal 4.6, at the least:

Harvard sites:

An extremely abbreviated summary of developer's summit deployment breakout.

Josh Koenig summarized the discussion so far and tried to put a direction on it: we want to separate configuration from code and have a couple approaches.

Greg Dunlap (heyrocker) of Deploy module disagreed completely: there is no separation of configuration and content in Drupal, there won't be, and there probably shouldn't be.

And lots of clients, what they really care about, is content deployment.

UUIDs in core would be huge.

We were working on Open Atrium for like three years.

There's going to be so many distros in six months, this will be great.

Everyone in Drupal needs to communicate much more about

(Jeff Eaton kicks off.)

Canonical use for token is mailmerge.

User mail is hardcoded system in Drupal 6, it doesn't use token.

Pathauto. Everyone is using it, or should be.

Immediately we proposed it for inclusion in Drupal core. More than three years ago.

Really, it wasn't good enough for core.

Organization: An all-you-can-eat buffet of crazy-- too many modules made tokens available, with all different names, and no categorization.

Code reuse: Date formats are hell.

In summary: CiviCRM and Drupal worked great for us. Not really any detail, maybe a good add for non-tech people in an org.

We're not necessarily people who use the internet a whole lot.

We're trying to get our stories out.

We needed better tools.
