Hello,
IBM has just unveiled a new project titled Project Zero that sports the tagline: Zero complexity. Zero overhead. Zero obstacles.
Evidently it's another attempt to learn from Rails and bring the productivity benefits of convention of configuration, DRY, meta programming and more to the Java & Groovy world.
If anyone tries out Project Zero, let us know what you think. Find out more @

Gerald
PS: Allow me to highlight the FAQ entry titled "What value does Project Zero provide on top of Groovy?":
Through the GlobalContext and event infrastructure, the Project Zero core provides an extremely loosely coupled programming model which fosters componentization and reuse. The Project Zero core also provides a convention for arranging scripts on disk in such a way that prescribes their location in an application's URI space. Groovy is one vehicle for plugging into this environment, but on its own is simply a scripting language.
