Ruby, Rails, and the mainstream | mentalized: " Ruby, Rails, and the mainstream
Journal entry
April 7, 2006

It seems I have stirred quite a pot around the office with my recent ravings about Rails. Today the tech-head on the board sent me this article about why Rails won’t make it into the mainstream and asked for my comments. The following is basically a translation of my reply to him (Gee, this is the closest I’ve ever come to being paid for blogging)."

This links to an excellent article about why rails will not become mainstream. I'd like to add - it's because a Java based framework will be created that does the same - but with a syntax more familiar to Java programmers - so little need to switch.
