Why off topic?

Just two notes:

- When I had to make a PHP e-commerce solution, I looked at lot of 
frameworks, and chose Seagull. Perhaps there are better frameworks (lot 
of them trying to mimic RoR or some Java Web framework), but I needed 
one running on PHP 4 and this one was nice.

- As per the non-Turing-complete template system, I concur, since I have 
read an interesting article on template engines from 
<http://www.stringtemplate.org/>: 
<http://www.cs.usfca.edu/~parrt/papers/mvc.templates.pdf>

I still found the syntax of StringTemplate too Java-esque, and wrote a 
specification of a simpler syntax, easier to parse (without ANTLR!). I 
had a vague project to implement this in PHP or Lua, but never had the 
time to go on.
