...hatever report writer we choose, we think, so we don''t expect anything to be fully integrated with Ruby or Rails ... we just want to start with a good base. So, is Jasper the best?

Roughly, I''m looking for functionality akin to the mail merge feature of word processors, including conditional and repeated elements, say, table rows. Michael
