I agree with that Fowler article. One things about frameworks that make them so hard to build is that you can't get started until you have all the pieces -- which is a contradiction. The only way you can have all the pieces is to refactor from code from real use cases. I have found that building a PHP framework is more of a shell game of moving the different pieces of functinality around until the system is tuned and balanced.
