See my parallel answer to this question. I would very much like to see
Zend_Soap make it to prime time in our next release. If the introduction
of Zend_Ldap was our 'enterprise-y' feature for 1.5, I'd like this to be
it for whatever we decide to call the next release. If you would like to
see this happen, too, make sure you vote on relevant issues and try to
find any way to help in development.
I don't know what your project timeline is, but I can tell you that
we're much more likely to follow up 1.5 with a minor release at this
point than a major. And the timeline for such a minor release would
hopefully be shorter than the release cycle between 1.0 and 1.5. So that
puts the peak of the probability curve for a release containing
Zend_Soap sometime this summer. Of course I can't commit to that. :)
BTW, we will start the next minor release planning very soon, so- while
in general it is a good idea to put your vote behind issues you want to
see addressed- now is a particularly good time to go on a full-on voting
bender in the IT.
