Subject: [LRUG] PHP and Rails


I hope this isn't too off topic.  Has anyone used Cake PHP, the rails
framework for PHP?  My client is refusing to use Ruby, due to the usual
scalability concerns and the difficulty in finding coders in the future.

I've inherited the app in beta form but it is a cobweb of includes, and some
dodgy attempts at PHP OO .  After using ROR, my heart sinks at the thought
of creating models from scratch and some kind of MVC framework.  Any
recommendations of a Rails style framework for PHP?
