Guys and Gals,
There's certainly a mass of hype surrounding Ruby these days.
It raises this question for me.
I usually still use classic ASP for my server-side stuff, but have begun
playing with PHP as well, since ASP is obviously over whether its a good
tool or not.
Now Ruby is pounding
In my, suitably humble, opinion, PHP 'is a good thing' and so I'm
going to keep using it for the foreseeable future. The only thing
that'll make me really use RUBY is when people start wanting sites
upgraded when they are already using it.
This may come across as a bit of a
As far as I have read and tried Ruby, it is basically just a new
language, in my opinion PHP is still the best Server Side Language
around, but perhaps I should do some more tries on Ruby as I have thus
far.
Besides, Ruby on Rails is a simple form of Ruby, where very little
programming is

I'll happily change my arguments :)
So that makes you qualified to speak then?

No, Ruby on Rails is a framework built in Ruby
Ok, SORRY for starting this thread, I didn't intend to start a classic
argument over server languages.
I just wanted to get a feel for how many of us standards guys are
adopting Ruby, or they plan to stick with PHP/other in the foreseeable
future.

It's not about Ruby or PHP, this is not a case for a language. Only
frameworks matter.
So the standards guys just pick a RAD (aka just add water...)
framemork, be it Ruby on Rails for Ruby or CakePHP (Symfony, Claw,
Zephyr) for PHP, that are pretty much the same effective.

Hi all
I'm closing this thread as it is off topic for the list.
Feel free to discuss the use of server side languages in relation to
web standards on the list. X vs Y is better left off the list as it
really has nothing to do with web standards (read the guidelines).
Thanks
James
