Jackson Miller has posted on the CentreSource Blog that he is disappointed that Zend did not deliver on Andi's promise of a Zend Framework preview release in February.

When Andi Gutmans was interviewed by Marcus Whitney on the phpArchitect Pro::PHP Podcast, he stated that there would be some sort of preview release for the Zend Framework sometime in February. It is now March and there was no release that I can find. This is a big disappointment for me.

I imagine I am not the only one who is dismayed by this broken promise from Zend. Hopefully they will release a statement not only letting the community know when we can expect the preview release, but also how and why the deadline was missed and what steps are being taken to prevent it from happening again.

He also mentions the need for a framework to help define the "enterprise level application" development, and that he had hoped the Zend Framework would have filled that void.
