I'm completely baffled: what's the point of "Data Validation" if there's no way of checking whether the data satisfies the condition? Could we all be missing something?
Description
I noticed that in v 1.9.18 you add some dynamically loadable extensions : curl, MongoDB and imagick
Why not make Phalcon available as a dynamically loadable extension ?
I'm not a Phalcon "fan boy", in fact I never used it :), but we do develop using GAE-PHP and we would love to have a framework to use in our GAE developments.
From what I have read Phalcon is all about high performance and lower resource consumption, so it could be a very good option, Google style :)
I know that in the other Phalcon issue you said that this will likely be addressed in the future with Managed VM support for PHP ... But isn't a bit an overkill to have to use managed VM's to have a framework available ?
In python Google already provide a lot (django, jinja2, ...) so let's level things up and provide a framework for PHP that people can use as a reference to develop around GAE-PHP ...
As I said, I'm not a Phalcon "fan boy", so other options will also be ok to me (like laravel, ...), but performance wise nothing seems to beat Phalcon ...
