• A week of symfony
• 2

Symfony continues providing impressive stats: nearly 300 changesets, 112 bugs fixed, 3 new versions released (1.0.19, 1.1.6 and 1.2.0 RC2) and 7 new plugins published. In addition, this week the symfony repository suffered a major reorganization with Propel 1.3 and Doctrine 1.0 plugins moved into symfony branch. Lastly, this week we also celebrate the 100th issue of "A week of symfony".
