If you like procedural, fb3lite is a extra-super-lightweight
combination of FB3 and FB5 that I built a few years ago.

http://www.barneyb.com/barneyblog/projects/fb3lite/

The framework is a whopping 72 lines long, but I use it for pretty
much everything I do, and after I used it for a couple projects at
work, it's pretty much taken over everything we do because of it's
simplicity.  It's unapologetically bare-bones, and only handles
front-controller responsibilities, but if that's what you're looking
for it's a great tool.

cheers,
