FWIW, my comments:
1) Videos are great communication tools, and nothing prevent us from
making them, I suppose.
2) This RoR video was good stuff, especially for people building
simple, self-contained apps.
3) I liked the ActiveRecords part, which is something we have to wait
for the Java community to respond to (as Sylvian noted earlier today).
4) I liked the Scaffold concept, which we may replicate: not just
samples, but ready-made apps to help people hit the ground running
when developing an app. I mean, we could have a "reporting scaffold",
or a "multi-channel publishing scaffold", or a "GIS scaffold" (you
expected that, didn't you ?).
And encapsulate the command-line generating utilities as Lepido wizards!
Command-line power for those who master it, nice gui front-ends for
those that prefer mousing :-)
