Help to decide the direction of Config Split

Config Split has worked mostly the same way as it did when the first beta release was tagged in 2016. The 8.x-1.x branch is using Config Filter as the API to hook into the configuration management of Drupal. But since Drupal 8.8 we have a much better API in Drupal core which allows us to do more complex things with simpler code than the Config Filter API did. The core API was designed with the lessons learned from Config Filter in mind after all.

Key points from our configuration management sessions.

Unfortunately none of us from Nuvole are attending DrupalCon Baltimore and can’t, therefore, attend the “hallway track” and join discussions in person. We have held presentations about advanced configuration management in Drupal 8 at all Drupal events we attended in the last year including the last DrupalCon in Dublin. So I’ll try to cover some concepts here that could help the discussion about how the configuration management can be improved.

Features done right? Features done wrong? What changed, what improved, what's still missing.

Nuvole gave two talks about the current status of Configuration Management in Drupal 8 at European Drupal events in the last few weeks: Drupal Days Milan 2014 and Drupal Camp Alpe Adria 2014.
