Griddle *Noise* and thats exactly what it is... noise.

He is probably following the discussions on the lists, and then he is 
publishing his view on them on his blog instead of participating in the 
dicsussion.


We have probably all seen the Ruby On rails in 15 minutes video, where 
they showcase their take on nineties web technology.

I could probably do one that is a lot more impressive with an UML tool, 
Plone, archetypes and ArchgenXML. And it would most likely last 10 
minutes... if I talked very very slowly.


But that is not the point. He rants about Rails. But what are the 
visions of rails? I don't see that anywhere on their website either.

He is just another developer who wants Zope to consists of only those 
elements that he is insterrested in.

In other words. Just like the rails, people he wants the freedom to 
reinvent the wheel. Poorly.
