Ah great, with the big hulking frameworks, I am sure there is a lack of understanding on how to use the more basic abstractions to do it yourself.

Great post.

Thanks Ben! The great thing about good software is that the implementation is often quite understandable. Rack's magic is its minimal response-triplet based interface, which allows the web server to focus on what it's best at; decoding and encoding HTTP requests and responses. :)
