> ROR resources are far and few

Not really, ROR community is very active, there's millions of gems that do what you need, and there's plenty of websites that teach ROR (railcasts.com, ruby-toolbox.com,...), you can find help on IRC almost instantly. There's as much resources as you need, almost anything that you need to do has probably already been done and a tutorial/gem written.

Sorry, by "resources", I meant "experienced ROR developers" and thats a statement specific to my city- Kolkata, India. Wish I was in Chicago or San Francisco. :) Indeed, online help is available, but its time consuming if the developer doesnt have sufficient experience. All large tech companies in India have Java practice, so Java developers are in abundance, and usually have better coding habits too. This may not be true in some other places.
