I am a new user of Symfony and i have a few questions. First is regarding 
Symfony's ORM layer - Propel. I find Propel rather restrictive, Doctrine is so 
much better. I was able to run the Doctrine plugin after a few hiccups. Going 
forward, does Symfony plan to make Doctrine its default ORM solution?

My second question is regarding application state. How does symfony store 
application state? How can I add/remove stuff from application state? Is it 
possible to create application state before the application starts serving user 
requests? First request to a Symfony app is always slow, I believe its reading 
all the YAML files and building some kind of state. How can an application add 
to this state? Are there standard hooks to which I can attach my code which 
would run at startup? Where is this state stored - in files or in-memory? I am 
new to PHP and I was looking for an equivalent of ServletContext object of Java 
and couldn't find it easily. Any pointers are greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Avneesh
