 Demian has also been watching Zend Framework 2 development since the ZF1-based VuFind 2 prototype is so close to completion.  Still no firm release date, but the [[http://framework.zend.com/about/zf2-faq|FAQ]] suggests it will be done this summer, and it also mentions a compatibility layer which should help ease the transition from the existing codebase.  There will still be a lot of changes to the VuFind code base while we move to the newer code, but hopefully the development branch will remain functional through the migration. Demian has also been watching Zend Framework 2 development since the ZF1-based VuFind 2 prototype is so close to completion.  Still no firm release date, but the [[http://framework.zend.com/about/zf2-faq|FAQ]] suggests it will be done this summer, and it also mentions a compatibility layer which should help ease the transition from the existing codebase.  There will still be a lot of changes to the VuFind code base while we move to the newer code, but hopefully the development branch will remain functional through the migration.
