New Features in Zend Framework 1.12
===================================

Zend_Loader changes
-------------------

A number of autoloaders and autoloader facilities were back ported from ZF2 to 
provide performant alternatives to those already available in the 1.X releases. 
 These include: Zend_Loader_StandardAutoloader, which improves on 
Zend_Loader_Autoloader by allowing the ability to specify a specific path to 
associate with a vendor prefix or namespace; Zend_Loader_ClassMapAutoloader, 
which provides the ability to use lookup tables for autoloading (which are 
typically the fastest possible way to autoload); and 
Zend_Loader_AutoloaderFactory, which can both create and update autoloaders for 
you, as well as register them with spl_autoload_register().

The Zend_Loader changes were back ported from ZF2 by Matthew Weier O'Phinney


Zend_EventManager
-----------------

Zend_EventManager is a component that allows you to attach and detach listeners 
to named events, both on a per-instance basis as well as via shared 
collections; trigger events; and interrupt execution of listeners.

Zend_EventManager was back ported from ZF2 by Matthew Weier O'Phinney


Zend_Http_UserAgent_Features_Adapter_Browscap
---------------------------------------------

This class provides a features adapter that calls get_browser() in order to 
discover mobile device capabilities to inject into UserAgent device instances.
            
Browscap (http://browsers.garykeith.com/) is an open project dedicated to 
collecting an disseminating a "database" of browser capabilities. PHP has 
built-in support for using these files via the get_browser() function. This 
function requires that your php.ini provides a browscap entry pointing to the 
PHP-specific php_browscap.ini file which is available at 
http://browsers.garykeith.com/stream.asp?PHP_BrowsCapINI.

Zend_Http_UserAgent_Features_Adapter_Browscap was created by Matthew Weier 
O'Phinney


Zend_Mobile_Push
----------------

Zend_Mobile_Push is a component for implementing push notifications for the 3 
major push notification platforms (Apple (Apns), Google (C2dm) and Microsoft 
(Mpns).

Zend_Mobile_Push was contributed by Mike Willbanks.


Zend_Gdata_Analytics
--------------------

Zend_Gdata_Analytics is an extension to Zend_Gdata to allow interaction with 
Google's Analytics Data Export API. This extension does not encompass any major 
changes in the overall operation of Zend_Gdata components.

Zend_Gdata_Analytics was contributed by Daniel Hartmann.


Removed features
================

Zend_Http_UserAgent_Features_Adapter_WurflApi
---------------------------------------------

Due to the changes in licensing of WURFL, we have removed the WurflApi adapter. 
We will be providing the WurflApi adapter to ScientiaMobile so that users of 
WURFL will still have that option.

Bug Fixes
=========

In addition over 200 reported issues in the tracker have been fixed. We'd like 
to particularly thank Adam Lundrigan, Frank Brückner and Martin Hujer for their 
efforts in making this happen. Thanks also to the many people who ran the ZF1 
unit tests and reported their results!
