New Module Purpose

[blaz boy]

Dear All,

me and a friend want to make a project for fun and we made up our mind

to create an algorithms library with PHP and also we want to make it

as part of zend framework, 

so the questions are :

1. What are the coding restrictions and style to meet ZF requirements
2. How to Merge it to ZF and is there any additional requirements to merge it?

Thank you.

My recommendation would be to make it testable, PSR-0 compliant, and list it at http://packagist.org/. Then, set out to build a ZF adapter if you so choose; however, not necessarily a requirement.

You should propose an RFC to get feedback, as well as review to
determine if it's a fit for the framework (we vote on RFCs, generally
during the weekly IRC meetings). You can see some sample RFCs here:

It depends on what your "module" is. If it is something reusable like PayPal integration - it's ideal to make it a Module (something like others listed on http://modules.zendframework.com/). 

If it's something that belongs to the framework follow Matthew's answer.
