Absolutely. Anyone interested in the idea should spend time working with J2EE and consider the merits. I have, and think it a poor idea. YMMV, though, and I'd like to hear what others think Ruby could gain borrowing from app server frameworks. For example, what (if anything) did J2EE get right? What other frameworks are worth examining? James
