Hi Kristof, Please don't take Alan's comments to personal. He is just a "hard coding" guy and doesn't need frameworks and all those nice tools :-)
Personally, I love frameworks as well, I use Fusebox for Razuna and we are working on our own one as well. It makes receptive tasks much easier and if the frameworks adheres to MVC, the code much cleaner. I guess in the end, and this is probably where Alan comes from, it is NOT the framework that matters, but more the logic behind the framework. Sadly, I have to say, that many framework developers use very quirky ways to make the code work. In that regard, I understand Alan's comment on it.
