On the Symfony blog there's a recent post mentioning an online conference offering a look into the current state of the Symfony framework and what's coming in the future.

During The State of Symfony 2 you will learn about the current state of the brand new version of Symfony, scheduled for release late this year. Several important parts of Symfony 2 will be highlighted by prominent speakers. And at the end of the conference, the second Preview Release of Symfony 2 will be published, including updated documentation!

Several guest speakers - including Fabien Potencier and Jonathan Wage - will be talking about the future of the framework and how it will integrate with other technologies (like Doctrine). There's two times you can catch the event - one on June 22nd @ 10am and the other is June 23rd @ 5pm (all times are Central Eurpoean Time). The registration will cost 30 Euro for the normal ticket, 20 for Early Bird (first 50 people to register).
