I thought I'd chime in here and voice a few more kudos.

I'd like to note that the 'read' component of Zend_Mail is entirely due
to Nico's efforts; he's done an amazing job of marshalling this effort
singlehandedly. Additionally, Simon stepped up to plate to close a large
number of Zend_Mail and Zend_Mime issues, as well as create methods to
enable SMTP Auth when using the SMTP transport.

A big thank you to the community for voicing their opinions and ideas on
the fw-mvc list; without all the feedback, the solution in place could
never have been reached. If you haven't tried the modular directory
support in the MVC, please check it out:
http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.controller.modular.html
Also, if you are upgrading to 0.8.0 from previous versions, be sure to
read the migration documentation:
http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.controller.migration.html#zend.controller.migration.fromzerosix
There were a number of changes, including:
* Promoting Zend_Controller_RewriteRouter to use as the standard
ZF router; additionally, it's name was changed to
Zend_Controller_Router_Rewrite to better conform to the coding
standards. Zend_Controller_Router was removed.
* Zend_Controller_Action::_forward()'s signature changed to:
_forward($action, $controller = null, $module = null, array $params =
null)
and several others.

A big thanks goes to Davey Shafik for proposing and doing the initial
work on these components. Changes during this iteration include making
the client more similar to Zend_Feed's API, as well as improved test
coverage and documentation.
