seems like this could be a real winning framework combination but needs some better simple CRUD examples to get folks like us using it. I looked at this last night but really couldn't easily get going with a simple app.

we like the use of fibers - regardless of what folks on the node forum say, callbacks are not easy, and most developers prefer simple sequential programming. Hence, the popularity of Rails. Also really like use use of Mongo shell commands as in Mongolian. Also the use of simple templates like ejs and Mustache.

BUT, there needs to be some simple examples to get folks going with common CRUD type apps - I suggest the project needs the 5 min blog and to-do examples. Even a simple hello world with a form to input name and then a template that reports "Hello " with a typical directory structure.
