Living on the edge with Merb
If you have ever had the urge to live life on the edge of software development, the project you should be following right now is Merb. By now if anyone has been attending or watching the ruby community podcasts then you have heard this software mentioned. The reason I suggest merb is not because I am a huge promoter of the framework (yes, some may call it my flavor of the week) but it is just so exciting to be apart of its development.
Merb has much a growing community around it that it is hard to believe suggestions are still so welcome and encouraged. I personally have weighed by two cents on a few topics in the past week and they seem to have been taken into account. To top it all off, the lead developer Ezra Zygmuntowicz has time to answer personal questions via IRC. I doubt I would ever see DHH do this for any Rails newbie.
Anyway, its time for me to get back to checking out this elegant little framework.
