After over 6 months of constant improvements, I have decided to finally release uMVC version 0.14.0. It is still a dev release, as new features are constantly appearing and the existing ones are evolving, but the framework is overall stable.

A quick tip for all those people out there stunned by Zend Framework's behaviour after an upgrade to version 1.12.1. There has been an "improvement" in the framework's resource loader, eliminating some invalid paths, as well as some valid ones. All resource-wide resources stopped working.

In the advent of high pixel density displays, the definition of pixel as a measurement unit in cascading style sheets becomes blurry. This brings an interesting probleem: how to serve images that will look nice and crisp on all devices without unnecessarily wasting bandwidth?

Some time ago I decided to implement some functionality to extend a PHP application's capabilities using the concept of hooking. The idea is to execute arbitrary code when an event, such as the execution of a given function, is triggered.

After quite some waiting, uTemplate has finally evolved, gaining a new version number: 1.3. The main change is a major API break, so 1.2 and 1.3 are entirely incompatible with each other.
