replacement much (DRYML) but I have been doing a lot of Markaby lately
and I can appreciate the reasonings behind it.
(As an aside, I really like that a lot of the ERb replacements are not
all-or-nothing affairs, and that you can integrate multiple ones into
the same app).
Also I am going to have to pimp Camping here. Been messing with it over
the last couple of weeks, and I have had something of a religious
experience.

No, I am Galway based, so I can't make the meetings. That presentation was
excellent though and it really helped me a lot when I was getting started,
especially some of the pure voodoo elements. Getting good documentation
on Camping is especially hard. Failing that, illustrative examples are even
a bit scarce. Still its amazing how much progress you could make, even
for someone like me who has only dabbled in Rails.
A blogger compared it to sculpture; seeing the web app take shape under
his own hands, and the metaphor was bang on. It becomes so obvious
where you should be DRYing up code, and having everything right in
front of you gives you a great perspective.
Even as I am learning and trying to get stuff working, I find myself trying
to better myself; introducing a generic 'add' view that can suit any model;
adding a special controller for 'under construction' views; making consistent
URI routes; spitting out CSS friendly HTML/Markaby output.
I am convinced that Camping is perfect for a project I am on - bundling a
web UI with a desktop application or an intranet service. Camping's
weaknesses don't apply here, but it's compactness is a serious benefit.
