cool! I love that magazine :) Now I would like to add a chapter about the plans for the 1.6 release. > From my notes I got that the MVC testing scaffold and the SOAP support > is planned to be published in the 1.6 release. > > What else is in the pipe for 1.6? Well, what about Zend_Tool? I don't know if Zend plan to push Zend_Tool into the 1.6 release, but it is likely that Zend_Tool will be in 1.7, which will follow shortly after the release of 1.6. See below. Also, there is Zend_Session_SaveHandler_DbTable, which will be in 1.6 according to JIRA issue #ZF-2335. You might also want to write about the "naming conventions for 2.0" proposal. > > Is there any release date planned for 1.6? you can read a bit about release dates and related stuff in this mail: http://www.nabble.com/One-week-to-get-your-contributions-in-to-the-1.6-release.-.-.-to18080409.html > What is the status of the Dojo integration? The Dojo Partnership is one of the key features of 1.6 and 1.6 will contain Matthew's finished Dojo integration implementation. > What are the plans for jQuery? Since Zend partnered with Dojo, the jQuery integration component proposals (there aren't any at the moment) would be part of the Zend Framework extras library. The Dojo integration is designed with other JS libraries in mind, so that the principles and design decisions of the Dojo integration can easily be transferred to integration libraries for other JS libraries.
