Grails vs. Rails: Are we seriously still talking about this?!

Posted by: Jason Rudolph on 11/18/2008

I had the pleasure of meeting a local Grails enthusiast last night who was new to the Triangle, but I was disappointed to see the same old argument spoil the show. The Rails vs. Grails debate is tired, and it’s curiously - perhaps even embarrassingly - unidirectional. I hereby call on the great philosophers to weigh in:

Philosopher, The First

Philosopher, The Second

Now, go in peace.
