Speaking as less advanced developer than most of you, in my genuinely humble opinion: I hope this isn't off-topic, but I've been working with Zend Framework 1 since it was in diapers. It had a learning curve and seemed a bit heavy but I felt it was worth it in my situation. Now comes ZF2, and as I start reading and learning about it, I can't help but wonder if I really need Dependency Injection. I hadn't noticed that I was having any problem managing my dependencies, thanks. There has been one case in my project where different classes needed access to a model instance, and I scratched my head for a while before deciding to use a singleton. This is the first I've heard that the pattern is considered evil by anyone. As I look at the ZF2 documentation, I'm like, wait a second. Is this not really, really complicated? Worse, perhaps, than the disease it's intended to cure?
