Well, I was looking for solution to fasttrack an entirely different
project when I ran across Revolution. I've been running it on a
Groundhog Day WinBox, but it's dive-time for me, most certainly. This
list is also a very fertile group, I think, and that's helped immensely.
Sometimes I think we programmers take far too much pride in the
*complexity* of what we do, and shun truly productive environments
because "anyone can do it" kind of thinking. (You're reading this from a
guy who writes Pike/Ruby/PHP/C/SB code in a freeware editor just to be
macho man because I'm surrounded by people 2/5ths my age. Job security.)
This is a useful, powerful product, and the way it gets more exposure is
if we turn out high-quality, attractive and powerful websites & apps to
prove it.
With apologies to VB lovers anywhere, this ain't exactly Visual Basic.
Regards,
Peter

Wow Peter, great! As one of the "lurkers" who has been toying with
Revolution before taking a dive, this is indeed inspiring.
Thanks,

As (your) luck would have it, we're working on exactly such a
document for the poor unfortunates who will inherit the servers once
I've wrought havoc on them.
This is pro bono stuff for the fellowship AFAIC, for keeping me
sober since 1979, so by all means, when it's done and relatively
stable, I'll release it in the RunRev wild.
Some of the stuff around FastCGI is a bit tricky, but I think the
documentation will pull you through. If it doesn't, you know where
to get me.
So, about the coffee ...

How about a tutorial on how to set up Rev to use FastCGI. For
those of us for whom a lot of these terms are totatlly new, it
would be great to be able to take advantage of some of these tools.
I know I'm already salivating at the possibilities of merge(),
something I just learned about on this thread.

Forgive the intrusion from a 'lurker', but as I've learned so
much from you all the last three months, it's time I gave
something back.
I'm developing using Ruby on Rails on both Windows XP Pro SP2 &
(Knoppix) Linux simultaneously.
Rev works just fine with FastCGI. Fwiw, I'd be happy to set up
some benchmarks and publish the results next week, if it helps.
A brief general comment. I use and modify the Ruby code to handle
the 'unseen' parts, if you will, and Rev to generate what the
user sees on the websites. I see Rev as complementary to ROR, and
it seems to work well. A good mix.
