Re: Is Cake Dead Or Just Catching Up?

I was also surprised to see Zend so far down - any glance over the job boards suggests this is one of the most in demand frameworks. I’m not losing any sleep over this survey.

I'm taking the bait:

Looking at the article and the pie chart I have the following observations:

Given that the bottom 8 "frameworks" ("pear" is a framework?) all have a response of 1.50% (likely one response each) and the intervals between the other groups (Zend 1 and "none" likely had 2 responses each , etc.) one can infer that the sample size of the valid responses to the survey was 67 +/-. Hardly a valid sample size. They conveniently left out this fact from their article. Any good survey ALWAYS gives the sample size.

What is "sitepoint.com" and what gives them the brass to say their readership mirrors the "PHP Community" at large?

I have used CakePHP for 5 years and I'm very happy with most aspects. The changes from 1.3 to 2.x really were a big improvement. I have not begun looking at 3.0 yet. 

I have tired Codeigniter and Symphony 2 briefly but ran back to Cake very quickly. It fits my thinking.

Also, judging by participation in the Google CakePHP group is not very valid either. StackOverflow seems to be more active now and the questions seem to be better.
