They changed the method names since version 0.2!
This explains the requested change. Go for it!

Okay, looking forward to your modifications.

Indeed.

Well, if I am not mistaken, they implemented 
namespaces in php5. (like c++) I could be wrong.

Cool, up until now, I've placed everything I needed in
the phrame-config.xml. For example, the welcome-file,
users and roles. 

And seeing as we integrate Struts and Java servlet
functionality into one php app, we should consider
building one config file for it as well. The split
between Java Webapp config and Struts
ServletController config is not in fact present with
Phrame. 

Also, keep in mind the extra overhead. There is less
need for XML config files with PHP then there is with
Java. So you might want to consider building
alternatives for the XML webapp config as well.

I implemented some of the user and role code already.
I had the authentication and authorization working
based on basic userauthentication. The users and roles
were listed in the phrame-config.xml. 

I added quite some code for it in my big modification
package but I didn't yet port it all over to the v2.1
controller I wrote. But there is a working example for
it in the big package! Roles, users, authentication
and authorization. Take a look at it.

Sounds like you have some fun features lined up!

Kind regards,

Alex
