Re: [OT] modperl vs. Ruby

Hi Enno Funnily enough I'm doing the exact same thing ... I thought I already had a lot of perl modules, but this beats everything. I know it's a bit of an apples and oranges thing, but can anyone give an idea of the size of mod_perl processes that are actually using catalyst? I currently run

Re: [OT] modperl vs. Ruby

I think catalyst was modeled closely on ROR. ROR is quite nice if a substantial part of what you wnat is CRUD based on db schema. Also the AJAX tools look good. But i18n  support is not looking too solid, though it may improve. This seems to be a problem with most frameworks though, and because
