Egads. Next thing you know Apple and Microsoft will be merging OS X and Windows 7. After all, they're both trying to accomplish the same thing, right? ;-) I don't use either framework, but this announcement saddens me in part because competition REALLY IS a good thing (that's my logical argument) and, to be honest, I would not have minded seeing DHH get served a slice of humble pie (that's my emotional argument). That said, I have a new found admiration for DHH. He saw the writing on the wall and instead of just waiting for his macro-framework to become irrelevant, he chose to follow in the footsteps of Microsoft and "embrace and extend" Merb. Well done!
