That sounds good to me too

I've had the unusual luxury, due to a lull in office work, to compare
several php frameworks, side by side and pretty in-depth. Ultimately it
came down to Zend and to Cake.

Honestly our group would have chosen Zend over Cake if Zend had been a
little further along in its development. Cake is a wonderfully crafted
tool, but all of us are seasoned developers who could be categorized as
"once bitten, twice shy" when it comes to software solutions that try
too hard to "help you" :-)  or that appear to be headed that way in the
future..

We were drawn to Zend's transparency -  you have to write more code (at
least for the bootstrap) than you do in Cake, but what you see is
pretty much what you get - there's very little that happens in the
framework that you don't specifically ask for in your code.  This is
not to say that it's not powerful, it's to say that  the "car won't
move unless you turn the key and put it into gear" lol.

Anyway, I would love to share with a dev discussion list what I think
are the strengths of both products for the purpose of possibly
improving Cake.
