Joomla as a PHP framework, is great. It's easy to use, its rich and its have a great community.

But the idea, to set CodeIgniter with another PHP Framework (Joomla for example), either as a complement or (even worst) as subordinate, is breaking the assumptions that basing our decision to choose CI as a framework. In other word, "why you using CI, then like philpalmieri did, working for several week to create templating library when Joomla can do template system, authentification and ALL stuff you need??"

I prefer to think like this. Joomla is 'Joomla', Zend is 'Zend', Kohana is 'Kohana', Yii is 'Yii' and CI is 'CI'. They are different stuff, and you pick one of them because different needs.

@philpalmieri, good template system!
