Hi Ralf,
UNOFFICIAL RESPONSE:
If we release ZF 0.2 on Halloween, I think many of us in the community
would like to wish for a Christmas present :) :) :)
Disclaimer: I am making a wish based purely on my personal desire.
Unfortunately, wishing doesn't make things happen on a schedule. We all
know the release dates of software are dependent on many many factors.
For those who follow progress via our Subversion commit history,
progress documented in our wiki and issue tracker, and especially
progress with our proposals, the best guesstimate might be extrapolated
from these sources of information. Darby made a very nice update to our
website that shows the roadmap:
http://framework.zend.com/roadmap/components/
The big wildcard factor lies with all of us. If we all continue to make
such good progress ... Community involvement continues to increase as
visibility and adoption of the ZF increases. Recent changes promoting
project teams facilitate greater involvement and coordination by the
community. We can only eagerly anticipate the results of releasing ZF
0.2 on the growth of community contributions. Personally, I am quite
happy to see the continuously increasing support and involvement of the
community and the approaching completion of several important proposals.
So please visit our project team pages, and our issue tracker, find an
area to help, and then ZF 1.0 will happen sooner!

Cheers,
Gavin

Hi Bill and all Zenders,
I just noticed that the 0.2 release is now scheduled for Halloween
(31/10/2006). That sounds very good and I hope the schedule can be met.
But I also noticed that versions 0.3 - 0.5 and 1.0RC have not been
re-scheduled yet.
http://framework.zend.com/issues/browse/ZF?report=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.project:roadmap-panel
What about the rest of the roadmap? Are there any plans for the further
release dates? When is the 1.0 version to be expected now (about end of
2006, or rather spring 2007, ...)?
What might be the biggest problems which will keep us from meeting these
schedules? Where does the Zend Framework project currently need the most
help from the community?
Thanks for your comments.
Best Regards,
Ralf
