Hi

Is it worth of learning the use of NITOBI components for PHP? Does anyone has experience of working with it in php? What makes it advantageous? Do we have other alternatives of NITOBI?

Please give your input, thank you.

I figure if I needed them then I could learn how to use them easily enough

not sure, anyone else have any thoughts?
