Agenda
- Update on December f2f logistics and agenda
- Review of open issues
- Cake 2.0: Now, soon, later, or never? (CO-112)
- Use of native features like exceptions, PDO, SPL, json_encode and much more. (Could simplify json handling)
- New Error and Exception handlers provide easier to configure, and ease working with errors such as page not found, unauthorized error and lots more. (CO-108)
- Completely refactored Auth system. It is now easier to configure and plug in your own implementations for external login services or your permissions system. (CO-124, CO-128)
- Dropped SimpleUnit in favor of PHPUnit. PHPUnit is the defacto testing framework for PHP with support for more options, better mock objects, and improved console output (CO-97)
- Improved support for PostgreSql, SQLite and SqlServer, they are now first class citizens along with Mysql datasource.
- HTML 5 form inputs support in form helper.
- A lot faster, almost everything is now lazy-loaded, and even on debug mode you will feel your applications flying.
- Localized 9: A set of country specific classes for validation a displaying correct texts for each country in your application (CO-117)
- Migrations 11: Easy database schema migrations and history tracking.
