Ruby on rails is like any framework, full of hype.
The language used is ruby, but using it on rails you're not really bothering with the language, you're relying on the framework to put your stuff together. That's like relying on a program to put your emails together for you, or a bot to make posts for you. It may be able to do it faster, but the results wont be as good.

Besides, it can easily be achieved on PHP with not much code. The first one took 6 hrs and the second one took just over a day to develop so there really is no point to using a framework which will bloat the thing and make it incompatible with most webservers (especially the free ones).

Another consideration is how much you would trust a big open project like ROR. Nearly every big web project I've ever seen has been hugely insecure on almost every level. Writing the code by hand, you can avoid a hell of a lot of problems.

Ok, I'll take your word on it

I have yet to learn it. Perhaps in the coming month or so

nice work rvt the community owes you alot. next time your bored you could get in touch and help out w/ gazelle perhaps

seeing as though gazelle is going to be open source and is hoped to be a serious replacement to tbsource i'd hope that what.cd would be seeking input from other site coders. glad to see such a public invitation to help develop gazelle further, not that i doubt whats coding skills.
