Subject: Adopt an Orphaned Tailor

i was wondering if anyone wanted to adopt a worthwhile but orphaned
project?

the project is xml:Tailor. i've had it sitting around here for quite
some time, and it works amazingly well acutally, except for one thing:
speed. its just too damn slow. of course it could also use some tweaking
arond the edges, and who knows what else.

but wait, what is it you ask? its a TAL for XML/XHTML and Ruby --a Tag
Attibute Language, similar to what Zope has, but better: Ruby code can
be easily embed into the Tag attributes.

anyway, i finally have it up on my site.

  http://www.transami.net/ruby/

note that the specs link dosen't work. but if you ask nicely :-) i can
throw together a brief spec.

if anyone is interested please let me know. i think its a worthy project
but i have lots of other stuff to do right now. in fact, if somoeone
could get it running nice and fast, it would certainly be the best
alternative to ERuby.
