Compared to what?  There are certainly quite a few vocal advocates
for Rails but the hype/buzz/interest seems to be of a different
quality than the type of "heavy marketing" that is usually associated  
with
large corporate PR departments.  It seems to me more of a grass-roots
buzz to me than any sort of orchestrated campaign.  I'd expect
David and company to be advocating their technology but I think there is
more going on than that.

Once I see RoR mentioned in Business Week, I'll consider it being
"heavily marketed". :-)
