That branch has been obsoleted; you'll want to grab it from our git respository; please see http://bit.ly/zf2gitguide for details. As for ZF2 MVC, I'm currently in the middle of writing the proposal for MVC implementation (I wrote a proposal for the interfaces a couple months ago). And at this point, I'm targetting at least two implementations: a version that mostly mimics ZF1 behavior, and another that utilizes several new features, including the EventManager and a Dependency Injector/Service Locator system. You can likely use the MVC as it stands now, but be aware that there *will* be some big changes coming in the very near future. Our goal is a working version of the MVC by the end of May (if we can), a beta during the summer, and GA by end of year. Personally, I wouldn't start writing anything in earnest using the MVC until we get the working version ready. -- Matthew Weier O'Phinney Project Lead | [email protected] Zend Framework | http://framework.zend.com/ PGP key: http://framework.zend.com/zf-matthew-pgp-key.asc -- List: [email protected] Info: http://framework.zend.com/archives Unsubscribe: [email protected]
