ANN: node.js (JavaScript) BERT-RPC implementation: node-bertrpc —
I’ve released a bertrpc library for node.js. If you haven’t play with node yet, set aside a night and dig in. Hacking async server-side stuff in JavaScript is every bit as awesome as I’d hoped: easy to install, good docs, fast VM, clean and simple event idioms. I’m impressed.

REST in the front, RPC in the back —
Assaf Arkin: “There’s also some back-end processing going on, and I think that part is using DRb for now. But maybe the next update it will switch over to RMI or UNIX pipes or whatever. I don’t much care because the library does the talking, and besides, it’s only distributed in the sense that we have two pieces of code running with different PIDs. Not particularly important what’s happening on the wire, as long as it’s fast.”
