Hello James,

Thank you!

I just released a new version of Nitro. The source code is much
cleaner.
I have included a new example (no_xsl_blog) that does not require XSLT
and runs by default on Mysql.

By the way, it is extremely easy to get the Blog example to run with
Mysql.
Just change th og configuration in conf/app.conf.rb

I also updated the docs to reflect the latest changes.

I 'll contact you by email later today and help you get up to speed
with Nitro! 

best regards,
