There are other frameworks that you can use without ASP.NET AFAIK, that 
Miguel has not mentioned (perhaps the ones he has mentioned are too tied 
to the AJAX-thing, I mean, they require JavaScript):

- Maverick.NET (if you use non-ASP.NET methods for the view, such as 
XSLT+XML+XHTML or NVelocity)
[ http://mavnet.sourceforge.net/ ]

- CastleProject (the Ruby on Rails port to C#)
[ http://www.castleproject.org/ ]

- Spring.NET (I haven't used this one but seems a port of the Spring 
framework from Java to C# that uses AOP)
[ http://www.springframework.net/ ]

Using these frameworks you are not only avoiding the use of ASP.NET but 
besides you use a smarter way of developing web applications (MVC pattern).
