In particular, the tags itsatrap and asshole.
I like the tags, enough that I would consider tossing a couple bucks at
Hey, look, new Zend Framework preview release! I wonder if it still sucks.

Yeah, still sucks.
Once again, "open source" product concentrates heavily on pet itches and gee-wizzery, instead of doing the grunt work like, "make it easy to have the same app be switchable from dev to production without server-wide configuration or writing lots of extra, possibly fragile code".
Memory fault - where am I?
