Is Rails a CMS?

Hi list !

More often then not when talking about zena, I find people saying that
“we don’t need no freakin’ CMS, Rails is a CMS”.

I posted an article on zenadmin.org with some reflections around this
issue and why some people find it useful to build such tools for rails
(adva-cms, radiant, zena):

Rails is to a CMS as a truck is to a banana.

In fact, the complete argument is that Rails with generic plugins = CMS.
But these arguments mostly date from the early ages of the CMS page on
rails’ first wiki when people were discovering REST, pretty urls and
scaffolding…

You cannot use a truck to build a banana.

And I feel dirty for bumping this thread :frowning:

Ahhh, but you can take a banana to market with a truck… so to speak.
