The new website with all current recommendations is in place, and the focus is now on building a sample application (in the line of current recommendations) demonstrating the power and flexibility of the framework.

The framework has been simplified further with its current recommendations:

1. Recommended folder structure has been made simpler. The decision has been made looking at the significant effort required for the programmer to pick different files from different directories. This will help programmer pick the files quickly for editing. It will improve the speed of development.
2. Earlier recommendations for structured code in the Model and View have been withdrawn. Instead, the new recommendations insist upon creating object-oriented code by employing two classes – model.cls.php and view.cls.php
3. The new recommendations propose to construct the content of HTTP Response through the View object rather than using “include” statements for HTML files within the Controller file.
4. The current proposal insists on using DB class through inheritance from the Model class.
