Is this a valid question? I thought that Webrick already offered some
of the web application management classes (sessioning, templates etc)
that these other tools do. Am I wrong? So far my only experience with
web development in ruby is in fastcgi, which has worked well for me, but
I’d like to explore other options.
Thanks,

WEBrick is a ruby library to build web servers. It can be used with things
like ERb for templating and one can do all sorts of cool things with it, but
it is a building block.
Borges uses WEBrick.

WEBrick has some very nice features for building traditional web
applications, but does not include support for sessions or templates
directly.
You can get session support out of CGI.rb, and templates with erb or
RDoc. This would allow you to write a zero-dependency web-app in Ruby.
