Hey -- I'm all for naming it (my preference: A little less geeky, a
little more fun, preferably pronounceable).  But can you say what it
(the framework) is?

  CGI::Application + Plugins
  Templating System
  Module-based
  Extensible, scalable
  Database driven
  Simple, effective
  Best practices made practical
  Tried and true, mature


> Django.
> Ruby on Rails.
> Catalyst.

All three of these more of less dictate a way of doing things.  CGI-App
is more of a philosophy.  (Am I mistaken?)  If you can't say what is and
what isn't in a "framework", then it's likely to devolve.  (See LAMP.
Used to mean Perl.)


(I once worked with a lousy sales guy who looked at a company which he
thought was successful, and observed that they had cool-looking
t-shirts.  He thusly concluded that if we had cool t-shirts, we would be
successful.  Let's not get the cart too far in front of the horse,
folks.)


My $0.02,
