Well said, and I agree. But I do see Trans point in all this, and it
is a concern I too have shared. Frankly I think we just need more
killer apps/frameworks for Ruby to bring the hype back to the language
itself and not just one framework. But Rails has done a good job
starting the trend. But there are still plenty of other domains which
could be improved with a nice Ruby tool.
