Thank you! That's because I deeply believe that Aida can help you making 
web app development as easy as Smalltalk development is.

I forgot to mention a hybrid serving (aka templating) too. That is 
currently disabled but I can de-comment it in FileProxy if interest is 
big enough. Idea  is to put a special AIDA tag in a static page, which 
is then dynamically expanded to full HTML when a page is shown. Example 
to add a visit counter on your page:

	<AIDA WebStatisticsApp pageCounter>
