PHP frameworks : MVC..and what else?

Question

I was just wondering (sake of knowledge) if "PHP-framework" concepts is strictly binded and depending upon the "MVC" concept.What I mean is: there's any php framework not relying on the MVC architecture??

At wikipedia

Most web application frameworks are based on the MVC pattern.

thanks.Most not all =)

It is not necessary for a PHP framework to use the MVC paradigm.

However, it is very useful so it often used.

Perhaps off topic: Hierarchical Model-View-Controller pattern is an interesting variant of MVC and is supported in frameworks such as Kohana (directly) and CodeIgnitor (indirectly)
