Here are 2 polls that seem to provide counter-examples to your assertion: http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=217157.0 http://roshanbh.com.np/2008/06/which-is-the-best-php-framework.html Don't get me wrong, I think they are all great frameworks, but I don't think ZF suffers from lack of popularity. :) I'd also like to say that the Zym project is really outstanding and has been developed by some of our most active contributors. I think that many of their features are going directly in to ZF, however, since we streamlined our proposal process. I'm very excited to see what new directions Zym will be heading in, since I understand that the developers will be augmenting ZF in new ways going forward. ,Wil I don’t think that it really should have much sway over which framework a developer chooses for his/her own development, but I haven’t seen any evidence that Zend Framework is less popular than CakePHP and Symfony.
