The irony of Mojavi

How ironic that the folks behind Mojavi, one of the oldest object-oriented PHP development frameworks, don't use their own toolkit to build their website.

From the official Mojavi website:

Mojavi is an MVC (Model-View-Controller) framework for PHP. The main goal is to combat the numerous issues associated with web application development, by providing an easy-to-use, yet powerful set of extendable framework classes.

When building a project based on Mojavi, you're allowing the framework to handle tasks such as security and parameter validation, making them transparent in your development lifecycle. This allows you to focus on more important tasks, and also removes a few layers of responsibility from your code. This ultimately leads to a cleaner code base.

Look under the hood, however, and you'll see this meta tag:

<meta name="generator" content="wordpress 2.6.1" />

Yep, the official Mojavi website runs on Wordpress.

Are the developers of Mojavi so busy improving the actual framework, that not one of them has the time to make a simple promotional website using their own software?
