Actually Rails is an emergent framework that's been rolled out from
Basecamp. That's why it has functionality holes, they only get fixed when
the developers get an itch.

But my point isn't that it's been "designed" by marketing people, just
that 37Signals are out there making a *lot* of noise about it.

We just sit using Catalyst and being smug about our ill-educated cousins
over there in Railsland.

A bit like Betamax owners. The difference being that we can make our own
tapes so the format need never be obsolete :-)

Simon.
