I've read most of what you guys have up there so far. Before I knew about it, I was pretty much lost. Very much looking forward to the final product. My favorite thing about Lift is the use of Snippets. I work in PHP primarily without a framework, and I don't mind writing SQL but it's always

Ramzi, Remote Actors are fragile. AMQP (RabbitMQ) or ActorD ( http://code.google.com/p/actord/) are better options. ActorD has the advantage of having a memcached ABI (wire protocol interface) and can make it easy to migrate logic out of PHP or Rails code into Scala Actors. Thanks, David On W

I just committed some preliminary code for a MappedDecimal field into the wip-dcb-decimal-maprec branch. I based it on the rest of the code for fields, but I was wondering if someone could take a look at the code and make sure it makes sense. It compiles, but I guessed on some of the "guts" method

"related to a combination of Option and Either" I'm not sure how I am missing that point since that is exactly the code I provided earlier. There is no point, except to assist Oliver in looking passed these fancy language tricks. In a pragmatic and therefore, not very useful way, yes Can is like
