Howdy! Since 2007 the Zend Framework project has evolved based on proposals. The proposal process allows each community member to contribute to the Zend Framework, while ensuring that everybody from the community has a say in what the component that is being proposed should look like, and whether or not they think it can be included into the framework.
We, the Zend Framework Community Review Team (just call it cr-team), however notices that there are a lot of old, abandoned proposals, and recognize this diverts attention from that proposals that are actually worth a look. Therefore we have decided to archive all the seemingly abandoned proposals and have set the gauge on four months. If your proposal is archived while you're still planning on putting it forward soon, you can feel free to restore it. This can be done by logging in to the wiki, edit the page (under 'page operations'), and drag the respective page to the category it should be in. This usually will be 'Ready for review' or 'New'. Just as a reminder, the proposal process works as follows (guess what, it's just four simple steps :D): 1. You think of a great, new, shiny component. 2. You write a proposal, as long as you aren't done with that you can save it in the category 'new' (default). 3. Once the proposal is ready, you can move it to 'ready for review' and announce it to the community on the mailinglists and irc (#zftalk.dev - http://www.zftalk.com). 4. When that is done you can move the proposal to 'ready for recommendation', and contact us. We will then review it. After that's done, it can usually be moved to the Zend Framework Incubator, followed by trunk (don't worry, we'll guide you through that!). For more details see http://framework.zend.com/wiki/display/ZFPROP/Proposal+Process Please be aware that your component, if accepted, will have to meet the ZF 2 coding standards before it can be moved to trunk. This primarily means you should use namespaces, and may have to rename some classes. If you have any questions based on this email or otherwise intended for the CR-Team, please send an email to [email protected] .
