dynamics The end of Dynamics

by Romain Dorgueil

For a few months, I did not have time to enhance dynamics. I'm currently building up some exciting projects and this leaves me a very few time to invest in "just-for-fun" stuff.

Additionaly, the excellent assetic library (included in Symfony2 standard distribution) does a very similar job (still I'm not sure it knows anything about dependencies), but in a much more powerfull way. There is plenty of gadgets and fancy stuff all around, and I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

So hereby I decided to make official the end of my involvement in sfDynamicsPlugin.

The documentation website will stay up, but don't expect anything to come out. Of course I cleaned up some blog articles about the dynamics releases, because they became completely useless.

R.I.P.

08/23/2011 update

I got some e-mail and real life comments, so I'd like to clarify some points.

  • For those who wonders, the code won't magically stop working because of my decision. It has been stable for a long period of time, and if you considered it safe to use yesterday, it is still today.
  • I also just pushed the "never-finished-1.0"-code to github, which is plain nodeps PHP. You'll find drafts of frameworks adapters in the contrib directory (only sf1 adapter actually works). If it can be of any use, feel free to do whatever you please with it. You'll find the generated documentation (same state as lib) under an obscure hidden directory on the dynamics website.
  • If someone thinks dynamics is enough usefull to deserve it and want to take over the project, I'll be glad to help.
