I spent the end of last year doing Java/Struts. Felt like time travelling back to 2002. Back when I knew PHP, versions increased, but nothing really changed for years and years (I'd be surprised if it was much different today). The .NET folk will tell you how great ASP.NET MVC is, but they live in their own world - a new view engine doesn't close the gap which exists between it and more progressive MVC frameworks.
The point? If you want stagnant frameworks there's plenty to pick. A lot of them aren't easier to learn, but none of them require you to keep learning. This is great because it tends to attract all the programmers you want to avoid into obvious communities.
