Hi everybody, it seems that this thread went quite off topic. I'm quite disappointed by the decision to discontinue the development of a Data Mapper for the Zend Framework. I read this thread and agree with most of the reasons against building a new one and waiting for the release of Doctrine2.

First, the Doctrine integration effort is happening *now*, and focusses on two separate integrations: one for the Doctrine 1 series, and one for the Doctrine 2 series. Doctrine 1.x works with PHP versions = 5.2, and many, many folks are using it with ZF successfully already (myself included).

One such area is unit testing; it's far easier to test a plain old PHP object than it is to test something that has couplings to the database -- which is what happens when your entities extend from a base class. This. Also because Doctrine is established, has many users and wide acceptance,
