Zend Framework reviews, articles, tutorials, blogs and resources

Lately, you must be hearing about Zend Framework very much. Maybe you looked at quickly and gave it a try. I did and loved it. I absolutely plan to develop my next project using ZF. It is already got mature enough since now the stable version available for download is 1.0.1 which starts with the real number ONE ;) ZF has plenty of developers and contributors so it is very active projects among other php frameworks.
