Hey Magnus! I think that you are a great maintainer as you kept Camping in good standing and bug free. That is more than enough :) I would agree the camping as a starting base for a new framework might not be ideal. As far as I know Camping was not intended to compete with rails (or anything else) but was more of a small, learning framework and given that _why did so many projects for beginners and education purposes this would fit in this category I think. It doesn't mean that camping is not cool or not as good as other frameworks bur, for what I can see, the initial idea was to have something simple and quick. There are so many frameworks e.g. even the core of Ramaze ( https://github.com/Ramaze/innate) available to build other frameworks. But does the world really need a new framework ? :) In honesty I think that if someone wants to do that it should either provide the coding power or be sure that Magnus buys into the idea and is willing to code that as per your idea. For me the current camping is sufficiently good in *most* cases but of course not all...no framework really is and there is no silver bullet. I don't think it would be something bad if anyone would say "hey for this project I prefer Sinatra as it does the job in a different/more elegant way than camping". What I think camping misses is more marking/visibility to attract more users and volunteers. Or what do you think ? Is camping at the moment complete as it is and the future code side would mostly be focused on bug cleaning/maintenance ? Best Regards David
