Content Construction Kit (CCK)

Drupal 7 and Fields in Core

Most of CCK has moved to core in the Drupal 7 version. The D7 version of CCK contains nodereference and userreference (mostly working), fieldgroup (not working yet), data migration code (partially working), and some miscellaneous helpers to do things that core will not do, like maintain the php code snippets some fields may have been using to define allowed values (partially working). The future of Content Copy and Content Permissions has not been decided and nothing has been done with them. Everything else is in core.
