At the risk of turning this into a pissing contest: Ive been working with 
symfony for over two years for a few sites. One of the sites we're 
rebuilding in symfony is Sparknotes. Its a BIG site, runs across several 
clusters of servers, load balancers, lots of legacy crap to deal with, 
etc. Last year, it received almost 1 BILLION page views, 148 million 
visits...

Even though I have used it for some time, and know it quite well, there 
are some parts of symfony I dont know because Ive never needed to. Again, 
that's probably true of ANY technology. But when you become intimate with 
a particular technology, I tend to follow its progress closely, I read 
official blogs and mailing lists everyday. We are still using 1.0 for 
current projects, but I am learning and using 1.2 for my own projects, 
because there will come a time when we will need to upgrade, so we need to 
be actively aware of that. A lot of programmers dont get involved at that 
kind of level and then get surprised by changes / updates / releases.

As 'tech people', programmers, etc. we have already decided to work in a 
field that is constantly changing. So we should be prepared to be 
constantly learning and updating our knowledge and skills. That's just the 
way it is in tech, and I accept it (otherwise I would just leave and go 
work on a farm! :-)
