I totally agree with Tiago. A very vital piece of documentation is how to modify controllers Newcomers with rails experience will have spent a lot of time between models, controllers and, wll the erb views. The views are replaced by dryml a very neat and advanced concept the models get all the fatness that they should . The very bareness of the controller seems nice at first, but one soon realizes that tweaking controllers and interweaving sime fine tuned things will either happen through dryml or the controllers. But where exactly is the question.
I am just at this moment trying to figure out how the front controller works together with the new permissions (8.5) and the index actions. Here are my top 3 items from Owens list: * Controllers and routing (Bringing http://hobocentral.net/docs/controllers/ up to the latest) * Users and authentication (mostly covered by the permission walkthrough, except for the view_permitted? aspect) * Multi-model forms Ffound this real gem of functionality: viewhints. Saw that on the releasenotes - This is great stuff, especially if trying to internationalize a site in one non english language. But I found no instructions on usage of this. Figured it out partially by trial and error. Some hints in the code on how to use that feature that would produce rdoc would have been very beneficial.
