A week of symfony #466 (30 November - 6 December 2015)

This week was one the most important weeks in Symfony's history. First, Symfony 2.8.0 was released, marking the end of the Symfony2 era. Then, the long awaited Symfony 3.0.0 made its debut, taking the entire community by storm. Lastly, the SymfonyCon Paris 2015 conference gathered more than 1,000 Symfony enthusiasts from all around the world to celebrate Symfony's 10th anniversary.
