Hi, Just like any other dev on the block I took RoR for a test drive to see what the fuss was all about, but short of sharing my experience with it and what I liked or disliked about it, I wanted to know if there is a close equivalent to the RXML/Builder Ruby lib that saw the light under the RoR project: http://builder.rubyforge.org/
To me it is the best part of the Rails framework :), but I can't seem to find a simple and syntactically attractive module in python that achieves the same purpose. I posted below a quick naive example for those who are not familiar with ruby-builder lib. Thank you for any type of pointers! If I can't find anything then I might decide to start to write my own python based module on RXML/ Builder philosophy. Cheers!
