What drives the development of Drupal 8 core and contributed modules? It's thousands of contributors all over the world. Many work in their free time, many work paid by their employees - all together driving the Drupal project forward via open source contribution.\nWith Drupal 8, so called initiatives were founded to focus development of Drupal in areas such as [Configuration Management (CMI)][1], [Layouts (SCOTCH)][2], [Multilingual (D8MI)][3], [Migrate][4] or [Views in Drupal Core (VDC)][5]. Recently, new initiatives have been formed around topics like [Content Workflow][6], [API-first][7] or creating a [new core theme][8].\nCurious about what's going on in Drupal 8 initiatives?
