Well, I'll tell you what my real problem is. I know ZF is open source, and I love ZF, don't get me wrong... but it's very frustrating to find some part of ZF completely OOP with good practices, and some other parts that are complete hacks. I don't understand this. I guess I'm not used to the open source process, but I don't understand why there's no folk from Zend or other companies, folks with deeper knowledge of OOP, that will code review most code in Zend Framework and fix these "messes". I mean, I sincerely hope Zend Framework achieves recognition with big companies and big projects, and the way to start is by being very serious with your OOP design. You've got Java and .NET out there which is now very robust in term of OOP framework.
I've recently had the hardest time trying to extend the Zend Framework to build some custom classes because some modules won't use interfaces at all (while others will use them intensively). I hope Zend Framework won't turn into "glue" like PHP did! Matthew I'm a big fan of yours by the way, and hopefully you'll fix it all, will ya? We're counting on you, you're our only hope! ;-) -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/How-to-contact-the-Zend-Framework-team-about-OOP-bad-practices-suggestions--tp21958265p21983346.html Sent from the Zend Framework mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
