Book coming along nicely, plus removing require_once from Zend Framework

Posted on 01/06/2009 at 08:52 PM

Just thought I would update the progress of the book, I am now on the final two chapters and the 1st draft version should be complete in about 3 weeks YAY!

I have been busy updating the Storefront over the weekend, which now has been optimized for the performance chapter and includes Model caching (which I hope is working....)

Anyway I will leave you with a nice little Ant Task for removing the require_once statements from the Zend library :)

Nice! I’m tuned!

When you will publish to the public? Will be available a draft version?

Not too sure on a publish date yet, still need to update the first few chapters to be 1.8 as I started in at 1.5 I think hehe The draft may be available on early release but the publisher will make that choice :)

Excellent! I enjoy reading your blog and I’m eager to purchase the book when it arrives on the shelves.
