really?

awesome!

concurrency is good?  happstack lisp-coreserver and smalltalk, and swi prolog have solutions that include prevalyer.org style in memory with updae log on disk  database, eg an in ram store or with swi-prolog a save every 5min serialization scheme,

would gnoga use postgrresql ? or is there a ada version of www.prevayler.org for the db part?

or?

I am intrigued by the idea of gui  and then abstract away web desktop etc....but not sure how that works....

mojolicious and aoslerver rails and django are the typical lamp stack things, how does gnofa compare?

why would you prefer it to all those?

can ada keep development pace quick like those?

I am no progrmaming expert but want to learn to code websites....and gnoga seems a interesting option...

tell us more!

will there be a wikibook?

haskell for example has one to learn haskell....

I think  I have a copy of the craft of ada or some book from 2006 that was reccomened somewhere to me..
