Need a simple PHP framwork for my webapp.

Question

Can anyone suggest me a nice and simple framework for PHP ?

I have tested CodeIgniter and it seems simple. I have been reading about CakePhp, but it seems a bit more complicated than CI. Maybe there are other nice frameworks that could be worth looking at?

Picora is a nice an clean PHP-Framework. Its even small enough to read the whole source and understand exactly what it does. Unfortunately the main developer drop maintaining it but you can find the source on GitHub.

I've written two articles/turorials about it (in german):

QCodo seems to be back under active development. I'm not sure what's changed in its fork, QCubed -- I think they just branched while QCodo was stagnating, but it also might be worth looking at.
