Pro: It's nice and modular so you can pick and choose what you use. It has a lot of features/components. I use a number of them (like Zend_Cache) in most of my projects. Some of the abstractions for working with APIs are really nice too (Amazon, Flickr, etc). Cons: The MVC implementation feels a bit heavy compared to other frameworks - might be better with the ZF 2.0 PHP5.3 version since that allows for some shortcuts. You should give Kohana a look. Some of our developers have had good luck with that framework. Lithium PHP looks pretty cool too but given that you found CakePHP limiting, not sure these frameworks will solve that. Not really sure what you're looking for that Cake didn't provide or allow. _______________________________________________ New York PHP Users Group Community Talk Mailing List http://lists.nyphp.org/mailman/listinfo/talk http://www.nyphp.org/Show-Participation
