Ralph demoed the tool internally yesterday, and I have to say it is quite impressive. It goes *way* beyond what you might expect after using CLI tools in other frameworks. It looked as simple to use as rails, etc. if you go with the defaults, but when you want to do your own project structure or extend the system it gets much more interesting. And for those who have written- or have considered writing- their own tool to manipulate ZF projects- or any PHP project, for that matter- this is simply a must-attend. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED. :)
