Olio (On Grails?)

[Randall R Schulz]

Hi,

Jorge Ortiz of the Lift project just brought this to the attention of
their list:

Olio
<http://incubator.apache.org/olio/>

"Welcome to Olio

"Olio is a is a web2.0 toolkit to help evaluate the suitability,
functionality and performance of web technologies. Olio defines an
example web2.0 application (an events site somewhat like
yahoo.com/upcoming) and provides three initial implementations: PHP,
Java EE and RubyOnRails (ROR). The toolkit also defines ways to drive
load against the application in order to measure performance.

"We encourage alternate implementations of the application by either
completely re-writing the application using a different language (say
python), higher-level frameworks (such as CakePHP)."


In all likelihood, some Lifter is going to create a Lift version of this
app (and others, no doubt). It seems that someone (maybe G2One with its
newly deepened pockets??) should do a Grails counterpart, as well.

Should the community interpet this as a sign of your willingness to
spearhead the Grails effort?  Olio looks like a cool project...A
grails integration would be great...But it looks like it is still a
bit early to roll up the sleeves and jump on board.

Ha! Don't shoot the messenger.

Besides, I don't really think you'd want that. I'm way overworked and
someone who has only learned enough about Grails to get my tiny app
going—not a rank newbie, but not much beyond a total novice.

Unless, of course, you'd be willing to pay me. I could use the income...
