Re: [fw-general] Great work with 0.9

This is probably the fifteth or sixteth ;).

I started with the framework last Summer and since then it has grown 
increasingly essential to my work. I won't be giving up Symfony for an 
exclusive stable of ZF applications but it's well in there and I'm able to 
place a lot of trust on the framework. I think trust is under-rated in PHP 
given the glut of frameworks and the ZF is a very cool standard which is 
accessible to even beginner coders. I know a lot of us can't wait to see other 
stuff enter the core post-1.0 so there's lots more to look forward to. I also 
look forward to contributing in my own way - I can't just take without giving 
something back.

Subject: [fw-general] Great work with 0.9

Thank you so much!

What can I say, I'm developing several big applications which ZF and even with 
the API changes from 0.8 took a while to fix I applaud for them. Sure there are 
bugs and inconsistencies both in manual and the framework itself but it does 
not make it unusable. I understand that people want to be on the bleeding edge 
and so on but lets give the developers a break with a cookie or two.

Just think about where you would be without ZF. Maybe writing filter for user 
input? Maybe some SQL? Maybe implementing your version of ACL and Auth? Yes, it 
can be fruitful to do those for personal experience but in a business world 
that's simply a no-no.

Let's all take a break with a cookie :)

Hello ZegeeDotCom or whoever you are.
You've been asked before, but I'll kindly repeat it: please stop
spamming the list with your requests..
Personally I haven't contributed any code, but can assure you that
nobody participating in this project is writing code "just for
himself". Where are you falling from?
Btw. - no, documentation is not more important than having a clear and
solid API. Maybe the two things are equally crucial for a project's
success, but who needs docs when everything is clear when you see the
method's name for example, and it's params, etc.
No offense, just calm down and let the rest of us say thank you to all
the people working hard for the framework, and thus for us too..

2007-03-19 Thread Jim Scherer

I think ZF is wonderful. +1 +1. I've been following it since it was
announced. I've written some php scripts in the past to make some desktop
applications information available on the web but had not attempted a full
blown application in php until now, and I'm very happy with the progress
I've made to this point. It takes me a while to get the hang of things, but
I've been able to get something out of each version. At first I struggle to
get mod_rewrite working and the boot strap file. I got a 'hello world' type
of app going with a view and the controller. Learned about the registry,
then I got connected to my MySql database. Played with the pdf. Incorporated
config with and .ini file. Move on to the rewrite controller and eventually
to using Parms. Then read something about autoload and got that working.
Added ACL and then Auth. Coded my own dynamic menu that utilizes Auth and
ACL to determine what menu items should be provided to the user. I'm using
plugins and cache among many other things I've forgot to mention. Its been a
great experience. I'm glad I've been here as it evolved because I feel that
I was exposed to much more then I would have been post version 1.0. I look
forward to the future and hope to evolve enough to make contributions beyond
a newbies view.

Three thumbs up from over here as well!

I decided to take the bitter with the sweet months ago and develop new 
projects in the Zend-Framework, knowing I would probably have to revisit 
all projects multiple times due to refactoring. I have, but the design 
has always changed for the better. Thanks guys!

I second this statement. I've been working with ZF since 0.2 and I grow
increasingly impressed with it! 0.9 is, obviously, the best release EVAH!
