Hi Guys,

I have posted the question whether we use Rails ActiveRecord as a Hybrid  
Structure, i.e. Data Structure+Objec, here

> <https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1968569/do-we-use-rails-activerecord-as-a-hybrid-structure-i-e-data-structureobject>

What are your thoughts on this? It doesn’t matter whether we hijack the  
conversation here from stackoverflow or continue there as long as we can  
have a meaningful discussion on this.

regards,

nas
