Zend Framework 1.7.0 Released

Posted by Jon on Nov 19, 2008 in Development, IMS, Zend Framework | 2 comments

That’s right ZF 1.7.0 has been release and it features AMF support, JQuery support, and Twitter support, among numerous other offerings.

According to Matthew Weier O’Phinney:

For this particular release, we tried very hard to leverage the community. The majority of new features present in 1.7.0 are from community proposals, or were primarily driven by community contributors. For me, this represents a milestone: ZF is now at a stage where fewer and fewer core components are necessary, and the community is able to build off it and add extra value to the project.

I am happy to say that I the Twitter Component was my handy work.  After ZendCon 08 Matthew passed the project off to me as he didn’t have time to complete it.

I also helped closed about 15 of thoes issues and I’m still working hard on closing more.  I also look forward to keep working with the community as it’s one of the strongest framework communities on the web.

Twitter Service for Zend Framework

Posted by Jon on Nov 16, 2008 in Development, Zend Framework | 0 comments

Earlier this week I had the extreme pleasure of having my first addition to Zend Framework added to the standard library.  I started working on this component after talking with Matthew Weier O’Phinney at ZendCon ‘08 where he stated that he didn’t have time to work on implementing the api for use in with the framework.

Zend_Twitter_Service is currently in the standard trunk for Zend Framework and is scheduled to be released with 1.7.  Please check it out and check back for some examples in the next few days.
