Nice. As a paying subscriber to the ExtJS library this is really great news.
I got it for this monolithic C++ .Net / MSSQL backend project. I was tasked with getting the front end sorted (previous was done by a backend programmer who use IE6....didn't know about FireFox). Well the project has progressed and every time a new feature is added the app becomes slower, there upto about 30 requests going backwards and forwards per "new form" view. To be able to use Merb as the backend and ExtJS as the frontend and have it all nicely integrated would be a big plus. Looking forward to seeing more.
