Rails users: would you use rails again?

Sure I will - Ruby is a wonderful language that I simply adore. I suspect that over time I will slowly migrate to my own replacements for various Rails parts.

Furthermore, there isn't much of "Rails" you have to deal with. What is Rails? Templates? They're more or less the same everywhere. DB access? Databases are dying anyway... What's left? URL mapper? Rails, ASP.NET, Django.. they are all the same to me.

Databases are dying? What will they be replaced with?

What I meant by that is the fact that more and more people realize that SQL back-end is not always what they want, I built an RSS search engine without one, for example.

2nd thing I had in mind was recent trend to use as little as possible of raw SQL, using language-native constructs instead.
