Have a read of:

I'm not exactly a fan of FB - I've been *very* critical of it (and some
of its proponents!) in the past but, as you can see from the URL, I
rewrote my personal site using FB3/PHP for the experience, and wrote
that up too.
FB4 is a nice refinement of FB3, replacing the various CF
infrastructure files (that you had to modify every time you changed
anything) with a simple, clean XML file, as well as adding a plugin
system. I haven't spent much time looking at it but there's some clever
stuff in there (including the parsing and compilation of the XML down
to CF code I believe so that 'production mode' is much faster).
Mach II (nee Fusebox MX) is a radically different beast and also worth
looking at. I've started a fledgling area about it and will be building
a version of my site using Mach II soon (no idea where I'll deploy it
yet! :)
