Hey everyone,

I just pushed http://github.com/snusnu/dm-accepts_nested_attributes/tree/master

It's not complete yet, but it's already reasonably specced (still lots
of specs to add of course!)
and also quite functional.

Current status:

* belongs_to: create/destroy/update(FAIL)
* has(1): create/update/destroy
* has(n): create/update(FAIL)/destroy
* has(n, :through): create(FAIL)/update(FAIL)/destroy(FAIL)

Also, since I need this rather soon for my current (merb) project, I
wrote it for 0.9.11
I definitely want it to be available for next branch (of course) but I
cannot spend
any time on it now, since from what I heard, next branch is not
production ready yet.

Anyways, I think it'd be really cool to have this in dm! (a plugin is
perfeclty fine, needn't be core)
The API is almost the same (one minor change for now - have a look at
the README)
like the one activerecord has, which should mean, that once rails3 comes out,
multimodel forms are totally possible with datamapper as ORM.

As for merb, I don't really know if merb has support for nested model
assignment in
its form_for and fields_for helpers. I have to say though, that I
don't really care, since
I don't use these helpers, but write the html that my designer
colleague wants to see.

Any help, ideas, discussions on irc/email, forks, patches, whatever
... are really appreciated!

cheers
snusnu
