Hi all,
Good News - my SugarSync client is now in alpha - with the ability to download and upload files and folders based on last modified times.
I will provide some initial source code once I have tidied it up a bit and done some more extensive testing.

My initial plan for this review was to install both frameworks and test both against each other. But after spending a few hours trying to get zend framework to install correctly, I gave up with it...
A PHP based framework should install fairly easy - I will give it another try when I get some spare time (it is a bit sparse at the moment with new baby liam)
Symfony however I have fallen for, every part of the setup is brilliant: from url routing to unit testing.
Initially I had a few problems following there tutorial (it defaults to use Propel ORM when Doctrine seems much better)
I'm still working out how to use most of the features, but that is mainly because there is so much of it.
I am using Crawler Catcher as my main project with symfony (as it needs a rewrite already). With the symfony framework and unit testing which is built in. All the old bugs have already been fixed.
More to come in the near future

I have been playing with the Zend framework for the past week or so, There will be a post in the next few days reviewing it. I am also looking at the Symfony framework this week and will post a comparison on both frameworks within the next week or two.
Symfony provides an architecture, components and tools for developers to build complex web applications faster. Choosing symfony allows you to release your applications earlier, host and scale them without problem.

If you had the choice would you commute to your works office everyday (maybe 1-2 hours each way) to do web development or would you prefer to stay at home spend an extra few hours with your family? Would you turn down / negotiate terms on a job proposal if you always work from home but a prospective employer doesn't agree with remote employees?
