Hey everybody! What a great week! So many exciting things have been
going on. The official releases of symfony 1.3 and 1.4 provide a lot
of exciting new functionality in the framework, which you can read
about here. But even more exciting is this year’s advent calendar, a
large part of with being contributed by our own Ryan Weaver! Be sure
to check it out, and consider purchasing the book from amazon to
support the community.

Also, my project Symplist is now launched, and in Alpha. Please check
it out and provide feedback. Symplist is a plugin site that exists for
the community. Its greatest asset will come with individuals like you
rating and commenting on plugins. Another section of the site, dubbed
“Community Lists”, will function as a repository for dense
information. Some examples of this is Symfony Best Practices,
Deployment Tasks, Symfony Coding Standards, etc. The highest-rated
items in each list sort to the top, as do the lists themselves. Check
them out, rate and add items, and leave some feedback!

On a separate note, Jon Wage has recently been pushing PHP
Interoperability Standards with PHP 5.3’s namespacing support. If you
personally have any PHP projects, or are currently developing one,
consider incorporating these standards.

We did not meet this month because of the holiday season and the
general overwhelming nature of most of our schedules. We will look to
meeting January 5th, 2010 (the first Tuesday of the month). We hope
to see you all there!
