This is just a quick heads up to say that I think the Castle Project rocks!
I have been using it allot of late especially Active Record. I'll blog more detail later but it's what I have been looking for all these years! Many time I have implemented simple subsets of the functionality that Castle provides to help get the job done. Castle wraps up all those funky framework fragments and more with a great "action pack" flavour to it in the form of Mono Rail (i.e. 'ruby on rails' for .Net)
Very cool
