XOOPS is my framework of choice. I can't tell you how many times I've gotten half way through a custom code block when I remember to go back to the library and discover, "Oh, they already have one of those."

- It implements SMARTY templates
- has great form management
- supports a wide set of modules
- is OOP
- is NOT PHP 5 mandatory (though frankly I think it SHOULD be .. writing pre PHP 5 code is like refusing to adopt C++.)
- is skinnble
- has a powerful, open-ended user maagement system
- is multi-lingual friendly
- has mail notification

and is just in general fast as hell to work in. Plus the whole application allows for a wide variety of skins and is eminently customizable even without changing a single line of PHP.
