Symfony is the best thing to happen to PHP in a long time and the guys at SensioLabs are doing a lot of great things. It wasn't on HN because HN still thinks PHP equals Wordpress/Drupal and those codebases are horrible.
It is unfortunate indeed, because it's not just the software that is great, but the surrounding community as well who create a lot of great tools like phpSpec, Behat etc.

Which is unfortunate. Symfony + Composer is powerful elegant (yes elegant) stuff.
