Mike, I am interested in Rails but don't know much about it and I am interested in OpenLaszlo and know a little about it. I know nothing about struts other than that it is some framework written in Java. I consider OpenLaszlo an app framework so I am not sure what you mean when you say you want a framework within OpenLaszlo. Can you clarify/expand on what you mean? (This really has nothing to do with answering your question.)
Thanks, Daniel.
