[TYPO3-ect] Zend Framework - The Official PHP Framework!

[David Toshack]

Sorry to restart an old thread but I thought this deserved a new subject
line.

Well its come sooner rather than later. Zend have released the
framework[1]! Chris Shiflett has written a tutorial[3] in php | architect.

Like Symfony it requires PHP5 so its probably a little early for TYPO3
just yet but it would be a great candidate for TYPO3 5.0.

Just thought I'd spread the news!


Cheers,
David
