Eric (or anybody else who might contribute),

I appreciate your suggestion about Seagull.  I have accessed the
documentation and it appears to be exactly what I was looking for.  I have
downloaded seagull-0.4.0dev1.tar.gz and looked into the Install Instructions
for Seagull App Framework, comparing these with the New Installation
instructions from SeagullDocs, and at this point am getting a bit confused.
I would appreciate any pointers you might be able to offer.  I have not yet
installed Seagull in the [install-dir] because I am trying to determine what
that should be, but I have familiarized myself with the seagull directory
tree.

For background I am installing on SuSE Linux 9.0 using the XAMPP
distribution, so the PEAR library is already in place.  According to XAMPP
documentation, the Apache DocumentRoot directory is /opt/lampp/htdocs/.

My questions are the following:

~ What is [install-dir] in this context?

~ Where do I insert the seagull directory tree in the current filesystem
tree?

~ Are there any other installation steps that I should follow?

~ How does one demonstrate installation success?

Many thanks for any assistance.

Phil

Sajith,

A reasonably good MVC architecture, named Seagull, is here:

http://seagull.phpkitchen.com/

It is developed as a full blown CMS. I didn't want to submit entirely
to it's means of taking care of content, but I found the design and
flow to be very nce. After figuring out how it worked, I stripped it
down to the barebones, and began developing custom modules for it.

I'll back up Alex when it comes to the Flexy templating system. The
forementioned architecture uses them, and man, it couldn't make
separating Busines logic from presentation any easier. It's reasonably
quick to learn too.
