Hi, I personally think that the proposed renaming of the Zend class to Zend_Framework is very misleading. I would expect that a Zend_Framework class will set up the whole framework and not be just a funny conglomeration of methods who did not find their way to a proper component.
Here are my suggestions: - move Zend::register(), Zend::registry(), Zend::isRegistered(), Zend::initRegistry() and Zend::__unsetRegistry() to Zend_Registry - drop Zend::exception() and Zend::loadInterface() - move Zend::loadClass(), Zend::loadFile() and Zend::isReadable() to a new Zend_Loader class - as suggested by others, move Zend::dump() to Zend_Debug - the only method I am not sure about yet is Zend::compareVersion() but I bet we will find a solution for this as well Like others I would also suggest to implement these changes before the 0.9.0 beta release gets launched. Best Regards, Ralf
