The goal is to build a PHP framework (PHP5 only) according to the MVC pattern that will give you a lot of scaling for "free". It's a minimal system that promotes code re-use through the use of .plugins. Plugins are essentially mini web apps with their own classes/controllers/templates/styles that you can include and re-use elsewhere in your application. A working alpha is available. Documentation to arrive shortly.

Included:

• MVC support
• Mostly automated ORM Layer
• Automatic database query handling (database independent through MDB2, memcached support, load balancing)
• Minimal ajax support (can return raw data in ajax mode, useful in combination with a javascript ajax library such as mootools or prototype/script.aculo.us

Depends on:

• PHP5
• MDB2
• Savant3 template engine
• Memcached (optional)

Not included:

• Form validation
