The easiest thing to measure is how quickly I can get a simple crud
piece up and running. Now that's more of a sign of documentation
'maturity' than the framework. And sadly Zend is winning that one. On
the other hand since I know how to poke all of you guys the
responsiveness on 'personal' help is much better. So I'll give Solar a
par. Longer term though some of the things I'm seeing in the framework
suggest at higher productivity than zend once we get cranking, assuming
I can figure out how the configuration of things works and how to adapt
the models to my own thought/design patterns.
