I am working on a CMS that also uses phpBB. I punted on Rails after
their awful deployment issues and inability to get along with other
apps without rearchitecting them. I was happy with CakePHP until I
wrote the piece to integrate phpBB's session code with my pages. Turns
out both phpBB and CakePHP have a global var named $db. So collision
city and major breakage.

No way am I going to go and change the name of such a key var
throughout phpBB -- it is used less in CakePHP but I am not tempted to
change it there either. I'd love to be able to get updates without
having to run a script to rename a high use global like $db. I have a
kludgy workaround for the moment but couldn't someone pick some decent
var names and anticipate that their code might be integrated into
something down the road? Geesh -- how about $cake_db?

Flame OFF
