Kohana - The Swift PHP Framework

Kohana is a PHP MVC web framework that aims to be easy, lightweight, and secure. It has no dependencies on PECL or PEAR extensions and uses strict PHP 5 OOP. It uses what it calls “cascading resources” to allow developers to extend the framework without editing the core system.

There is an extensive list of [modules], even a MongoDB ORM, MangoDB.
