Some news about jifty.
debian:
As said Ryan52 on IRC. I'm waiting the update of libapp-cli-perl from
waldi. I send a mail to him and the list one month ago, open a bug few
weeks ago. Ryan tried to catch him on IRC. Maybe it's time to make a
NMU ?
Catalyst:
There's no fight between Catalyst and Jifty. A short resume can be :
Catalyst is fine for huge application than Jifty aims to provide lot of
pre-build modules and must be better for write quickly, some short
application. I already talked about that with Matt ;)
My advise is : now, if you want to use existing DB, use Catalyst, if you
want a new DB consider using Jifty.
Now jifty start to become really stable and it's used in Request Tracker
4.0, so don't worry for its futur. Packaging RT4.0 will be easy.
I think there will be more work for debain packager with jifty plugins
in few weeks.
