[OT] - Thank you #57

Hi! I'm one of the many users that love Cuba. I also have the pleasure to know you and enjoy all of your work and products but now I want to show my gratitude in a public manner.

This OT and useless issue it's just my dumb way to say thank you for the work you do, the support to the community and the lesscode initiative that makes a bunch of us happy.

Next time I'll buy you a coffee and give you a hug.

I second Bruno.

I have switched Ruby frameworks over the years since 2005 starting with Rails then Ramaze then Sinatra. Over the last year or two I reviewed all the Ruby frameworks available. When I first saw Cuba, I didn't understand it for some reason and never gave it a chance. So I continued on with Sinatra.

Then recently I listened to Michel Martens (soveran) on Ruby Rogues podcast. He intrigued me with his minimalist mindset. Prior to web programming, I programmed hard-real-time embedded systems, so I appreciate minimalism and speed. So I decided to take a second look at Cuba. After checking out the slides on Cuba.is and the code on Github, I was convinced Cuba was the perfect framework for me.

I just wished I would have "got it" the first time around. I guess not having routes directly associated with an HTTP verb (didn't seem RESTful), not to mention route nesting, just didn't make sense to me at the time. Now I see its true genius.

Anyway, as time permits, I will happily convert my Sinatra apps to Cuba. I look forward to joining the Cuba community.

Thanks to Christian Neukirchen, Mr. Martens, and all contributors to the Rack and Cuba projects.

Clint
