Tom McQueeney Weblog - Java Blog: "A posting Friday on TheServerSide defending Java against Ruby on Rails made me realize that some Java programmers seem to be feeling threatened by Ruby and its Rails framework. The concern seems to be Ruby, or another scripting languages like PHP, makes developing web applications easier than using Java and one of its many web frameworks. The result being Java will start to die out and really will become the next COBOL.
Granted, there's a lot of hype right now about Ruby and Rails. We all read or heard about the article in January on the O'Reilly ONLamp web site by Curt Hibbs saying Ruby on Rails will let you develop a web application 10 times faster than using Java. That article seemed to strike a chord among Java developers. A lot of blogs have been discussing RoR and why it's the best way to go for developing web applications, or a big step backward for separation of concerns and good design, depending on whom you read.
