Ask HN: Is anyone else still using Rails+Capistrano?

1 points by laneystroup ↗ HN
It seems like you hear about a new, automated, Heroku-like alternatives for deploying Rails every other week, while Capistrano themed posts simply mention it's decline.

However, I still like Capistrano, not just because it was the first deployment tool I used, but for its simplicity (SSH deploys), portability (you can use it with any cloud host), and smaller attack footprint.

In fact, I like capistrano so much, that I have even got load balancing and auto-scaling enabled for several projects via the elbas gem on AWS.

Is anyone else out there still using Capistrano? And if so, would there be interest in sharing configuration files?
