The standards you are referring to are most likely the PSR guidelines, and we are looking into ways that we can make CakePHP compatible with the ideas in the guidelines.
I think the ability to combine different frameworks and libraries together is generally something that can already be done. There are a few pain points, and I hope to find the time to figure out how to make them less painful. Just because a framework isn't 5.3 only doesn't mean you can't use 5.3 features in your application code. -Mark On Sep 7, 5:53 am, "j0n4s.h4rtm...@googlemail.com" <j0n4s.h4rtm...@googlemail.com> wrote: > two notes on this: > > a.) while this might not make me friends: Lithium may be able to pull > of both: a.) a very microkernel framework that comes without much > tools and with a "loose frame" (thus bad for newbies and bad > programmers like me ;-p) and b.) a standard set of "addons" > "extensions" "plugins" whatever: data sources/object mappers, filters, > authenfication, access control, etc. > > Why do I say this?
