Thanks Andi for making Layout a priority (we were getting nervous =P).
The next big thing is probably to open up discussion on Zend_Form. There's
been some community discussion on the path forward but no real plan as of
yet.
Is there any specific plans for Zend_Form going forward? The proposal that
is in the tracker is somewhat dated.
For my vote I'm looking for something that can:
- Create forms from an instance of a class or config file (not an
abstract-class approach)
- Validate/Filter Data
- Integrates with the flash messenger and repopulates forms on failed
validations (sessions)
- Has appropriate view helpers to handle common form scenarios (array
binding option lists for example)
- Is sufficiently lightweight as to not intrude onto business logic/model
logic. (there's been considerable debate on where the validation process
stops [the checking for a free username scenario])
I'm sure theres a lot more, so anyone else who has an opinion, speak up.

Hi Aaron,
We are spending this week on planning. This includes both defining the
product lifecycle (major/minor/mini releases, how we branch, what goes
into mini vs. minor, etc...) and also try and pin down owners +
priorities for the various features.
It will probably not be 100% final by the end of this week but it'll
give everyone a clearer idea of how we think we should manage the
various version releases, what the rought schedules should look like,
etc.. In any case, Zend_View_Layout is high on our priority list and not
a very big piece of work (a lot of headway has already been made by the
various community members). So I believe this should move forward
quickly soon and even if it's not in an official release you'll be able
to pull it out of the incubator.
Andi

Subject: [fw-general] Release Schedule
I see the roadmap, with some of the future things to be
implemented in ZF, but is there a release schedule?
Specifically I'd like to see when Zend_Layout is coming out.
I was told it would be included in 1.1, but when is that due out?
