The official CakePHP website sports a new design at the start of this year, designed by Armando Sosa. Not only is it a handsome update in and of itself, but also draws attention to the beta release of CakePHP 1.2. I haven’t had a chance to experiment too much with 1.2 yet, but with the full stable release expected to come out May 2008 (-ish?), I think I’ll have to give it and all it’s new features a try :)
