Scaffolding is great for generating a base controller but in the end as you
said you most likely be rolling your own. I found that controllers in Grails
are extremely simple to write and in single line (via spring) you can inject
your services which is great. As far as active record goes you will have to
forgive my lack of knowledge but I don't know much about it. I do know that
Grails uses hibernate for the persistance layer, can you explain what you
don't like about that?

Thank You
