A happy thing happened one year ago today - the PHP community was given the gift of symfony. Today (the 19th) marks the one year birthday of the launch of the symfony website and project.

The website was launched on October 19th, 2005, and it has rapidly gained a tremendous success. The adoption rate of the framework has been incredible since the beginning, and went far beyond our hopes. Today, we read about symfony in the press and on the Internet every day, new websites using it launch in many countries. We read a lot of very positive reviews about the framework but, more important, we read or hear about successful projects using symfony, and these real use cases are a proof that the framework reaches its goals.

Many congrats go out to the entire team over there! Keep up the great work!
