Dont worry Freddy, im not trying to start a war between frameworks here :).
I was just curious about the topic :). In fact, im against all common wars
in software, "linux vs windos", "java vs .net", im not into that.
Anyway, thanks for clarifying the goal of your post, i apologize if i caused
some missunderstanding here.
Best regards.
