Developer skillset, personal preference, and the app(s) in question are the only important criteria. If those were irrelevant, there would be only one framework in any given arena, because there wouldn't be anything to differentiate. Competing frameworks arise (like anything else) because the existing offerings didn't meet a given entity's need.
Honestly, I can't think of anything else that would differentiate a framework in a meaninful way, except perhaps LOC for different tasks, but even that is dependent on the app you're trying to develop, because there will be different tasks to perform depending on the app. cheers, barneyb On 5/2/07, Robertson-Ravo, Neil (RX) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Again, I get confused on why it would "depend".
