ZendFramework-1.6.1 was just released.

It's an MVC framework written in PHP.  All OO.  Hooks and packages for 
everything from AJAX to XmlRpc.  Not a lot of tutorials out there yet 
but looks very promising.

As with all things, what you get out of it depends on how much you are 
willing to put into it.

I've converted a php/mysql based site to it.  At first the going was 
slow but as it started to come together (and I began to understand it) 
it began to move quickly.
