Greg Dunlap (gdd)
Greg Dunlap got his start in Drupal in 2006 at a Lullabot onsite training for his employer at the time, the Seattle Times Company. Feeling an instant kinship with Lullabot Jeff Eaton, Greg accepted Eaton's encouragement to contribute and today leads one of the eight core initiatives for Drupal 8. The so-called CMI initiative endeavours to consolidate Drupal's scattered site data, views, content types, and module settings, to a unified, secure API. The new system, which shipped as part of Drupal 8, makes deploying, testing, and reusing Drupal site configuration more consistent and easier to manage.
His Drupal resume has included stints with leading Drupal agencies Palantir and NodeOne, and his body of work includes work for Foreign Affairs magazine, Ikea and the Swedish Government. He authored the Deploy module and was a long-time maintainer of the Services module. He is also co-author of Packt's "Drupal 7 Module Development."
