1. It's being used on production environments all over the place, for a few
years. I personally have been involved with MR powered commercial websites
and products since 2006.
The core API has been very stable for the most part of it, with a single
major change about a year ago (refactoring to IController)
A rather large test suite keeps regressions at base
MR was initiated by Hammet, who is now a MS employee, yet stil is the
headmaster of the whole Castle project. It has nothing to do with the
project's stability. As it is with every OSS project that gains a certain
amount of popularity, there is a steady community of contributors (for the
core as well as for contributed ecosystem).
2. It's a matter of taste. I personally would avoid NVelocity. For the
less verbose taste I'd use brail, and for the stricter flavour (and the
easier migration path for C#-ers), AspView might be the answer.
Or look on the various contributed ones. Or implement your own if you have
to. It's quite simple actually.
3. I see no business value in those, so I never pushed for reviving the
generators. Hammet has once written something about a way to use
DynamicActions and a simple view skeleton to achieve CRUD pages with minimal
recurring code (and avoiding generated code altogether).
