Dave Thomas, who is heavily involved with Ruby yet not Rails-core, and

True, but Rails had lots of buzz and has -lots- of prod systems.  Of
the 2 people I talked to with prod rails systems, neither had heard of
this 3 hours after the posting.  I only knew because of luck on
prog.reddit.

Security is freaking hard.
