The Drupal community has recently made the decision to adopt several Symfony2 Components in its upcoming version 8 release, due out in mid-2013. This is a major shift for Drupal, and a huge opportunity for both projects.

This session will cover some background of the decision to adopt Symfony2 Components, what specifically Drupal will be using and how, and how both projects can benefit from this development. Time permitting we will also cover some history and architecture of Drupal, including the parts that will not be switching to Symfony, to provide developers with a brief overview of Drupal development now and in the future.
