It was there, it provided solid components we could start to replace the
wild and wooly db classes, mailers, etc with. But above all it provided a

cut-and-paste it into an even bigger mess or start trying to write their
own framework (and fail).

Two and a bit years in and there are still plenty of hairy bits left ;) But
no regrets - the product has a future it never had before.
