I second JWP. For me, I am learning rails and the ability to collaborate in this manner is unique to Heroku thus far. I have been very frustrated with tutorials which focus on scaffolding that has been totally rewritten with rails -v 2. Heroku allows me to learn rails by collaborating with others in real time and I am learning quite a few different approaches to building apps.
I definitely see Heroku as a useful tool and am prepared to endure the growing pains. On Thu, Apr 10, 2008 at 10:53 AM, JWP <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Actually, I think this might be a sub-issue.
