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.
