Subject: Re: Developing a website

I have no reason to believe that you need anything special to make your
website.  Specially in terms of Ruby packages.  Ruby comes with cgi by
default.  I don't know about database access, but it probably does too.

I would *not* suggest eRuby since it's your first project, leave it for
the second.

I don't know any HTML editor for Windows, so I can't recommend.  They are
not *necessary* but some are certainly very nice.

It'd help to know what you intend to do on the website.
