Professional opinions on development frameworks

Dear Rails web developers,

I'm currently part of a research team at the Free University of Berlin, looking into the ways in which the major web development platforms differ. In addition to our work with the Plat_Forms contest, we're now looking for actual professional opinions.

If you have practical experience in the development of non-trivial web applications with two or more web development languages then we would like you to participate in a short survey. We are keen to have as many Rails developers as possible complete the survey, especially as we were unable to field a Rails team for this year's Plat_Forms contest. The survey itself runs on your friendly nemesis, Django.

The questionnaire asks you about your experiences and opinions on two of the web development languages you have used, and should take about 10-15 minutes to complete. To thank you for your participation, you will be able to provide an email address and we will send you our final report when we are finished compiling it.

We look forward to your answers and experiences, let me know via email if you have any questions: hardy@inf.fu-berlin.de
