I had thought about the possibilities of a Rails-style PHP. I've
actually been doing a lot of rails programming recently (in addition
to this project :)

We don't need a full ORM, too much effort for something we don't
really need. I think the idea of routes is very interesting. Being
able to do fofredux/feeds/ajturner/new or something instead of the
nasty view.php?.. &... & .. & .. &
that we currently have. Though how are are we passing around these
view variables? Via a session?

And I think the views will be very similar to the rhtml files of Ruby.
Simple calls in the HTML to PHP commands.
