Slow, but steady growth. I think Rails got over-hyped and as a result, a lot of people dismissed it as a fad. But it is beginning to prove itself in the market and in the enterprise.

Take a look through the list of the top 100 Rails websites (http://rails100.pbwiki.com/). These sites (and of course yabb) help to demonstrate the capabilities of Rails - the most convincing argument for technology is what it can help you to achieve.

Give it time. Adoption is a virtuous circle; the more high profile apps that use it, the more high profile apps will use it.

I'm happy with the size of the community as it is. I think the size of the PHP community, for example, does more harm than good.
