> It catches your attention when a respected member of the Java development community says Ruby On Rails may be a successor to Java. You’ve heard of Rails, of course. It’s that hot Ruby-based MVC-patterned full-stack framework for developing web applications that babysit databases.
Dr. Dobb’s Journal has a glowing feature on Ruby on Rails this last issue, which you can read online at the above link. I’ve been using Rails quite a bit on a personal level the last year or so, but it’s got quite a bit of proving to do before it’ll be accepted here at work (only Java development so far).
