nitrogen

I've been checking out the Nitrogen Project which is supposed to be the most mature web development framework for Erlang.

Erlang, as a language, is extremely impressive. However, with regards to Nitrogen, what I am not too keen about is using Erlang's rather uncommon syntax (unless you're native in PROLOG) to build UIs.

What is your experience with it as opposed to other mainstream web frameworks such as Django or Rails?
