Hi,
Has anyone read: "BUILDING APPLICATION FRAMEWORKS: OBJECT-ORIENTED FOUNDATIONS OF FRAMEWORK DESIGN" by Fayad, or something similar?
Would it make sense to describe OACS as an application framework?

yes.

However, the valuations of companies that build "web application frameworks" are in the toilet right now, so maybe you don't want to describe OACS as an application framework, if you are writing marketing literature. It might be better to describe it as "a way to save your business hundreds of thousands of dollars in software licensing fees."
