That was where I stopped as well. I moved from PHP to Django about 9 (wow) years ago because I was reinventing my own ORM and very poor reusable web component set but didn't see something like RoR in the PHP world (there were some early ones but they weren't that appealing at the time). To say PHP is equivalent to Django, RoR or any of the very nice PHP equivalents is . . . I don't get it and thought maybe this was parody of parody.
