True enough, but sometimes that "if a tree falls in the woods and nobody hears it..." saying comes into play. I'd even guess Catalyst picked up users from the Rails hype(? yes? no?) I understand the visceral reaction most developers have to marketing efforts, but in most cases it does end up affecting what one can use "on the job", regardless of technical merits. Sad but true. But this is an old discussion... -- ________________________________ toddgrimason*todd[ at ]slack.net
