Or "pure" Ruby code. What does "pure" mean, anyway? There's no such thing. Every usable language has library-type capabilities above and beyond that provided by the syntax of the language. > There are other issues with PHP or Perl sites.

Sounds to me like you're repeating stuff someone told you or that you read somewhere without having actual specific experience with PHP or Perl. PHP and Perl are inherently no more or less secure than any other language. > Can you integrate bug reports on the website with the mailing list > and the TODO files on the server with HTML?

Content, by definition, cannot "automatically" do anything whatsoever. It's content. Code merges static content with presentation to provide dynamic pages, be they static HTML output files or on-the-fly HTML created by PHP and such. > Can you integrate forums and the mailing list like > David said?

I was referring not to the opinions, but to the statements used to back them up. :) Until such time as we decide XSM cannot and will not serve our needs, I think we should just drop the whole RoR conversation.
