Last week the second incarnation of Symfony Live came to an end and I just had the time to check a couple of shared slides from the event.
Definitely interesting stuff going on there, especially the preview release of Symfony 2.0 whose code is available on GitHub since a couple of ...

I'm proud to announce the immediate release of guitone-1.0rc1. This is the first release in a series of smaller releases which aims at the stabilization of the guitone codebase. Many (if not most) of the features one would consider needed for a "1.0" release have been implemented, a couple of ...

...and especially not if you get the impression that the dump will afterwards be readable by the doctrine:data-load command of symfony.
It was a costly lesson today when I tried to reimport a dump of a couple of Sympal tables. One of them, the one which models the menu items, has ...

Imagine you have a business method in your model which needs to be accessed by two environments: once from a symfony task and once from the web. So far so good, now what if this business method should be able to log contents somewhere visibly, in case of the command ...

My latest Symfony project uses Doctrine as ORM, which is considered to be a lot better than Propel by many people...

Yesterday my "automate-out-of-band" branch finally made it into monotone's trunk. This is a prerequisite for the support of netsync commands in guitone I've blogged about earlier, as it makes in-stream informational, error and ticker messages possible, even for remote connections!

I've recently packaged monotone-viz 1.0.2 for MacPorts (and soon also for openSUSE), a program to display monotone's DAG of revisions and their properties.

Thanks to Timothy (and probably also thanks to the bad weather) we've seen some development activity for monotone recently.
