I wonder what is the future for Merb after Rails 3.0 final version
will be released? Will it be continued as indepenedent Merb 2
project? It might be quite possible...

Although Rails 3 is apparently improved over Rails 2, it still uses a
lot of crappy features of Rails 2.

E.g. named route helpers. In Merb I can just write:

%w(search read faq).map{|menu| url(menu)}

In Rails 3 I have to write nasty:

%w(search read faq).map{|menu| eval("#{menu|_url")}

or even more verbose:

%w(search read faq).map{|menu| link_to(menu, url_for(menu.to_sym))}

Another example - rendering. I do not know why Rails 3 borrows from
Rails2 magic render() method with its  stupid DoubleRenderException
error...
