    All right, so it is a 0.1 initial public realease, but given the at least 3 months it's been in development since the announcement and the two-sentence fuzzy roadmap statements, the framework doesn't look too promising so far. To say nothing of Ruby on Rails, there are at least a dozen modern MVC frameworks out there for Perl, Python, J2EE and yes, PHP, that are much further along and more importantly seem better thought out. If at this point the roadmap still doesn't speak in terms of things as basic as automagic mappings of controller actions to view templates, and assumes by default that views are in the same directory as controllers, I wouldn't be so sure the people working on this get what's got so many people diving into the new MVC frameworks.
