waves

Waves is an open source framework for Ruby-based Web-applications. As a metaphor: Waves is the collision of an elegant language with the work of many talented developers that, together, like piranhas, can strip a cow to the bone in under a minute. As Haiku: piranhas cow do / strip cow until only? bones / time? 1.minute end Buzzword variation: Full-featured and thread-safe. Compact and extensible. Configuration and convention. RESTful but also Magical (very important). Gem Soup: Rack and Mongrel (HTTP server), Sequel or Filebase (storage), Autocode (code reloading), LiveConsole (hot patching).
