A week of symfony #526 (23-29 January 2017)
This week Symfony released the last maintenance version of Symfony 3.1. Meanwhile, we also introduced the concept of Experimental Features which will allow us to mark the API of some new features as "not definitive" during some Symfony versions. Lastly, the Cache component added support for the PSR-16 Simple Cache standard.

A week of symfony #525 (16-22 January 2017)
This week, Symfony 3.3 added a new data collector and profiler panel for the Cache component. In addition, the autowiring feature was simplified to always autowire the constructors. Finally, the ClassLoader component was deprecated because the advances in Composer and PHP 7 have made it unnecessary.

New in Symfony 3.3: Optional class for named services
In Symfony 3.3, the "class" argument of the services is now optional. When it's undefined, Symfony considers that the "id" of the service is the PHP class.
