I agree. I've just met the RingoJS developers at the RingoJS meetup in Vienna. Very impressed!
The RingoJS/Helma team should make it more clear about how committed they are to the development of future RingoJS libraries. RingoJS will benefit from more contributors but it's doing just fine already.
Fair point. Clearly, I don't have enough experience with it to gripe about specifics, but it seemed more like a web programming library than like a Rails-ish web framework. I'm a huge fan of convention over configuration and RingoJS seemed more configuration-y. ...but the point of this "Ask HN" was to set aside my preconceptions and to get people's thoughts on what's happening in the JS Server Side world, so I'll go look at RingoJS with fresh eyes.
