I think thats oversimplifying it and slightly ignorant.
 
Linked-in can be a useful non-email way to social network and keep up with what people are doing. When its working, it can be an excellent way to make new contacts. [I know I've personally landed several contracts that I would not have without linked-in]
 
As for all subscribing and registering as a profile however, linked-in supports a 'groups' feature which would be a lot more appropriate. Two groups, one for 'Zend Framework Contributors' and one for 'Zend Framework Users' might be cool for keeping up with stuff. The problem is someone needs to be delegated as the group manager/moderator.

It's just a job hiring...
They want you to do their work ;-)
And when you've done their work good you will get a donut as reward ;-)

I just threw a glance at it and I didn't seem to find informations on the purpose of this site. What exactly would the benefits be like, if we all registered?

Would it be an idea to setup an Zend 'linked in':
http://www.linkedin.com/ account and join everyone who's interested up
on this?

The company i work for is often interested in finding people with the
right skillset for various projects, and were always open to buisness
opportunities too, and linked-in seems a good tool for this job.

Just floating an idea (shamelessly inspired by ajaxian.com's same style
setup), see:
