I downloaded CI because of recommendations from this list as well, but
was totally shocked when I discovered that its codebase is written in
PHP4! I looked up for an alpha version that is written in PHP5 to no
avail. I just can't understand why would they still be in PHP4 while
Symfony, a framework born after CI, requires PHP5 since version one
and takes full advantage of PHP5's advanced OO features!
