Symfony 2.0 Preview
Feb 26th
Here we go. Fabien Potencier last week released the preview website for symfony 2.0 (symfony reloaded). Me, as a long time PHP and symfony user this preview shows a lot of new interesting stuff comming to web development with symfony. A Quick-Tour of Fabiens newest baby is also available and points out major changes to the framework. First thing to notice is the completly changed directory structure. Another major step is the use of >= PHP 5.3.2 which adds support for namespaces and gives a great performance boost. As release date for symfony 2.0 “late 2010″ is scheduled.
