Current Development
The first development release of Zend Framework 2.0 was released on August 6, 2010. Changes made in this release were the removal of require_once statements, migration to PHP 5.3 namespaces, a refactored test suite, a rewritten Zend\Session, and the addition of the new Zend\Stdlib. The second development release was on November 3, 2010
Additional changes to be completed before final release include the reduced reliance of __call magic methods, reduction of singleton classes (e.g. Zend\Controller\Front), and request based conditional module configuration in Zend\Application. The requirements of the MVC infrastructure of the next version of the framework are currently being discussed on its wiki.
Although the contributors of Zend Framework are actively encouraging the use of Zend Framework version 2.x, they will maintain version 1.x for the time being.

Famous quotes containing the words current and/or development:
“The current of our thoughts made as sudden bends as the river, which was continually opening new prospects to the east or south, but we are aware that rivers flow most rapidly and shallowest at these points.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The work of adult life is not easy. As in childhood, each step presents not only new tasks of development but requires a letting go of the techniques that worked before. With each passage some magic must be given up, some cherished illusion of safety and comfortably familiar sense of self must be cast off, to allow for the greater expansion of our distinctiveness.”
—Gail Sheehy (20th century)
