I understand that this extension was supposed to be standard in PHP 5.3, and I can empathize with the frustration of discovering that it is in fact missing from many PHP builds. However... it's missing from MAMP, and Apple's out-of-box PHP. Ouch... that creates a steep learning curve for people who have traditionally been able to kick-start Symfony easily.
(MacPorts PHP offers it as a port at least; that last isn't a real complaint because virtually everything is a separate port in macports PHP. But installing MacPorts PHP and MySQL is considerably more difficult than installing MAMP or just adding MySQL to Snow Leopard's pretty-good PHP) I am concerned that this is probably significantly reducing the number of people who are really evaluating Symfony 2 any further than the "HelloBundle" level. Bernhard mentioned trying to decouple intl from the forms framework. Is anyone actively working on this yet? If I'm looking for a place to contribute, is this a reasonable task to take on?
