I’m pleased to announce that two additional chapters have been published online for Zend Framework: Surviving The Deep End, a free Zend Framework book available online.

Chapter 8 is a quick chapter on planning the development of a blogging application.
Chapter 9 is a concerete implementation if this application’s Domain Model, specifically Entries and Authors. Its purpose is to write a Data Mapper using Zend_Db_Table in the background.

A third appendix, “Unit Testing And Test Driven Design (TDD)”, is additionally scheduled for release over the weekend.

Remember that all comments are welcome through the book’s paragraph by paragraph commenting system. You may also make comments at the end of each chapter.
