So, as an experienced PHP programmer but someone who's looking wanting to
get the whole picture on how to best start utilizing ZF, where does one
begin?
Like Daniel pointed Surviving The Deep End is a good book. The book is
more a 'best practices' tutorial for the Zend Framework user. Being
familiar with MVC components helps.
The best way is to start writing an application using the Zend
Framework. If you wish to make contributions to an open source project
written using Zend Framework, I have suggestions. :)
Many of us hang out on #zftalk on freenode.net IRC channel.
Recently, I wrote a review of the book - Zend Framework 1.8 Web
Application Development at
http://techchorus.net/zend-framework-18-web-application-development-book-review
. The review might help.
