Merb 1.0 - approved by Matz himsself
The Merbist published a great article about Merb 1.0 release. In the long list of the compelling reasons to use Merb, you will find and interesting quote from Matz(Ruby creator) himself: [..] I think that that Merb will give users more freedom in a Ruby-ish way of programming [..]
The entire quote is available in the blog post. But basically, Matz in enthusiastic about the fact that Merb tries to be closer to the Ruby language and Ruby philosophy instead of trying to create a web DSL on top of the language. Merb is “bringing back” Ruby and is trying to reunite the Ruby web world with the rest of the Ruby community. Now that Merb is 1.0 and companies like yellowpages.com are using Merb, you don’t have any excuses to not give it a try.

yes… so you should definitely go to MerbDay to reconnect with your inner ruby child… The morning session will actually be a hands on tutorial. There is limited space, so sign up sooner rather than later!

Clearly Matz doesn’t know about Active Support fork Extlib
