I think it makes sense to think of MonoRail's competition as restricted to the .NET space, since it seems to me that platform selection (i.e. 'must be .NET') usually precedes framework selection (at least when it comes to the proposition of MonoRail). So I don't see Django, as an example, as a MonoRail competitor, since django on IronPython is still a pipe dream. On the other hand, I wonder what you guys think about Ruby on Rails. It is my understanding that IronRuby can now run RoR handily. Do you reckon RoR is a competitor? Should we scrap the Castle project and just use ruby? :) Personally I don't think RoR is a competitor because it seems to me that most devs consider it too far afield -- too much of a learning curve, too far away from comfort zone, etc. So basically think MonoRail's competition can be further restricted to C#-oriented .NET technologies. I don't know of any beside those already mentioned -- Fubu and MS MVC. --Stuart -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Castle Project Development List" group.
