On behalf of the Zend Framework community, I'm pleased to announce the immediate availability of Zend Framework 1.10.2, our second maintenance release in the 1.10 series. You can download it from our downloads page: http://framework.zend.com/download/latest This release includes approximately 50 bugfixes, the majority of which were contributed during our Bug Hunt Days last week (more information on that in the days to come). The fixes contributed are helping stabilize and improve this release.

On behalf of the Zend Framework's many contributors, I'm pleased to announce the immediate availability of Zend Framework 1.10.1, the first maintenance release in our 1.10 series.

Almost a month has passed since our alpha release of 1.10.0 , but the activity on the Zend Framework trunk has done anything but slow down. A number of contributors have completed features that were only near-completion during the alpha, and others have undergone further community review to add a bit of polish to their APIs. At this time, I'm happy to announce a BETA release of 1.10.0. http://framework.zend.com/download/latest

The Zend Framework team announces the immediate availability of three versions of Zend Framework: 1.9.7, 1.8.5, and 1.7.9.

I just this morning pushed a new version of Zend DevZone, and the biggest change was a move to Zend Framework version 1.9.5 – Why is this important? Because it was previously running v1.0.1 ( gasp ), and I wanted to tell the story of the work it took to upgrade.
