no. everything was fine actually. apps where developed quickly, used "cool"

probably. i think the main reason is that management does not want to have 3
separate development lines (RoR, Java and .NET) for Web apps. I think they
want to unify the development Frameworks/languages so they can relocate
Staff from one project to an other without loosing to much "learn" time.
