Evaluating frameworks that are reasonably feature complete can only be
a subjective exercise. You could compare features but even with a
specific feature set that you were looking for you stil have to
evaluate the claims to make sure that the framework supports it
effectively. So you are left with opinions and annecdotes which are
going to be extremely subjective, to day the least, and what works for
one group will not work for another.
Importantly, you need to consider the groups by "maturity" as well.
One framework might suit beginners really well but as they "mature" it
might begin to fail them.
Another framework might have a steeper learning curve and scare off
newbs. The same framework may continuously satisfy those with more
sophisticated requirements well beyond any learning curve.

So you are left with doing your own evaluation. Many of the frameworks
use the creation of a blog as a introductory example. This is a
reasonabe first application that covers many of the features offered
by each framework and allows you to "kick the tires". I would go
through the frameworks that offer this as a tutorial and then attempt
to write one for the frameworks that do not. That would give you a
good feeling for how each works and would give you enough information
to make your evaluation more objective.
