For myself, at least, I didn''t come to Rails because I wanted a
framework. I
*wanted* a object-oriented Web development language (Ruby) and found Rails
to be a fantastic implementation.

The way I read the history of PHP [1], I believe it was originally a C
framework that morphed into a language.


At any rate, I''m not sure I understand the terms perfectly, but I
wouldn''t
think Rasmus'' controller would qualify for that label. But it looks
like
this is already being debated on that page''s comments track...
