[Rob Marscher]

Yeah... I was going to chime in and say that the chart is out of date 
with regards to the Zend Framework too.  The current preview release has 
caching and the roadmap for the 1.0 release has an auth module as well 
as many options for web services - 
<http://framework.zend.com/roadmap/components>.  I've also seen 
discussion of possible ORM options in the dev wiki.
Zend Framework requires php5 and is not fully mature yet, so it may not 
be the best choice if you're quickly trying to get an app off the 
ground, but I think it has a bright future.  I'm also a big fan of 
CakePHP and thought the Andromeda demo app was pretty neat.  I'm not as 
familiar with the other frameworks out there.
