Object Computing, Inc. (OCI) has announced the formation of the Grails Foundation, a not-for-profit company established to advance innovation and adoption of the Grails framework. The foundation will oversee software roadmap and development, best practices and processes, repository control, documentation and support, and fundraising related to the open source framework. The foundation will receive initial funding of $200,000 from OCI for development and evangelism.
Originally named Groovy on Rails, Grails was co-founded in 2005 by Graeme Rocher, Guillaume LaForge, Steven Devijver and Dierk König. At the time, Rocher was CTO at the now-defunct G2One, an open-source Groovy/Grails company that provided training, consultancy, support and products around Groovy and Grails.
