I moved away from Drupal about a year ago, Drupal 7 wasn't out yet, but I thought I remembered them talking about how a lot of the common modules would be integrated with it, especially CCK.

I'm looking to give it another shot now, came back and saw Drupal 7 was available now, but looks like CCK is still a separate module? Or am I misunderstanding and it is integrated?
