I bet if you spent an afternoon working with the framework they expressed as a "requirement" it would be enough to say that you have "experience". I would also bet that what they really *don't* want is someone who's never heard of frameworks or doesn't understand the benefits.
Regardless, I would tell them that in today's web-based application landscape, the web/controller framework you choose is hardly the biggest architectural concern. Mach-II/MG/FB make good controllers in an MVC app, but if you build a crap model or view all three will suck, and if you have any plans to do an Ajax/Flash/Flex front end they are pretty much irrelevant. -Dave Ross >My beef is with people who list it as a requirement.
