Andi Gutmans' Blog:
New Zend Framework Website look launched (almost)

byChris Cornutt Apr 18, 2006 @ 11:53:49

Andi Gutmans has a note concerning something those working with the Zend Framework probably already know - the launch of the Framework's new look and feel for the site.

After my talk at Scale 4x, the Southern California Linux Expo, Roy Rubin from Varien got in touch with me.

In the spirit of community, Roy offered to contribute to the Zend Framework by having his team help with a new design. From seeing the sketches it was clear that Varien could deliver something far more appealing (a.k.a sexy) than what we had created. So after hard work by them and Mike from the framework team, we've almost got it done.

There are still a few things, like the manual that have yet to of been changed over to the new look, but the primary part of the site is there. Andi also mentions the real drive those behind the framework are making to set up a bug tracker for the project, an easier solution than posting bugs to the mailing list.
