I know Adam Lundrigan wrote a blog post about using \Zend\Di in zf1:
http://adam.lundrigan.ca/2011/06/using-zenddi-in-zf<http://adam.lundrigan.ca/2011/06/using-zenddi-in-zf1/>.
He also created a git repo with this as an example:
https://github.com/adamlundrigan/zf-examples/tree/master/zf2-di-in-zf1

So yes, it's possible to integrate. However, recent conversations on the
contributors mailinglist indicated that perhaps some small changes will be
made in the near future (Evan working on "sharing resources").

The Symphony DI has been used in some zf1 projects for a while. I've seen
the tweets and blog posts about this, but can't find those anymore.
Certainly, the DI can be coupled.

Alphas have been released for a while: release-2.0.0dev4 is the most recent.
On Zendcond (Oct 17-20), a presentation with official beta release is
planned.
