Wanted to mention that I think Lithium is aimed at a much different class of programmer than CakePHP from what I can tell. Lithium looks like it is good for someone who knows how to build all the functionality they need from scratch and doesn't want anything else in the code that won't be used. CakePHP has a lot of features that help speed along common tasks facing most web developers, and it packs in a lot of functionality out of the box. Just take a look at how much work Mark Story and the gang are putting into these last few builds and you start to get an idea of just how much work is going in to the project. In reality CakePHP 2 is more of a step away from << PHP 5 and some of CakPHP's legacy features and not so much a radical departure as Cake3..ahem I mean Lithium.
The future of CakePHP looks more like improving on an already good thing that tons of people already use and not necessarily reinventing the wheel to design uber-apps with the hot new framework in town, Lithium (of which I have yet to, and would like to try). But the 5-6 Apps/Sites I have built this last 2 years will need to stay with Cake as far as I am concerned.
