D7 > D8
All issues are in the core queue.
About IMP
WHAT: Import API in Drupal 8 core, based on the Migrate project. Also in core: Drupal 6 and 7 import using this API based on the Drupal-to-Drupal data migration project. Read and comment on Mike Ryan's thoughts at http://goo.gl/WnTOB0.
WHERE: If you'd like to be involved now, find us in IRC on #drupal-migrate. If you have any doubts about what to do, find us in IRC or post in the issue! Work takes place here: https://drupal.org/sandbox/chx/2105305. The UI is at https://drupal.org/sandbox/mikeryan/2271813 .
Migrate API documentation can be found at https://drupal.org/node/2127611
WHY: So that Drupal 6 sites can move directly to Drupal 8. (And because the current upgrade path is unmaintainable.)
HOW: We're currently doing targeted testing and patching of the D6->D8 migration path. Want to get involved - introduce yourself in #drupal-migrate on IRC!
Now broadcasting weekly meetings on Google+
Migrations Resources and IMP Group Status
A few questions...
1) I've been tinkering with D8 migrations off and on for a few years now and I've got a few recipes to assist me in custom migrations but are there any resources available to help with areas that aren't currently supported in the Migration API?
Note: Primarily I'm stumped on migrating D7 paragraph bundles into D8 paragraph bundles.
Read moreViews migration support in core tabled
After careful consideration by the migration system maintainers, and consultation with xjm (D8 Release Manager), we've decided that migration of legacy views will not be supported in Drupal 8 core for the initial stable release of the core Migrate suite. heddn's comment lays out many of the specific challenges this support would face.

Drupalcon Los Angeles session
I'm looking at submitting a Drupalcon session on migrations. I already have most of the slides written, as well as some code samples. I presented this at the Portland DUG and there was quite a bit of interest.
Anyone want to collaborate? I'm sure there are a few gaps in my knowledge, like D6-D8 migrations, that some of you could help me fill in.
