Just FYI, I released a framework called Vintage last night that's
based on the original idea of Merb: Erb templates with Mongrel (though
I've expanded that concept to allow for more template renderers).  No
MVC, no big infrastructure: just clean, simple templating that can be
used for simple or complex pages.  I'm going to port it to Rack soon
so you can use some deployment setups that are a little simpler than
Mongrel, but if you're not scared of a little setup (proxying,
Mongrel, pretty easy) then give it a spin.

Source is here: http://vintage.devjavu.com/

More documentation coming soon.
