Hey guys just got home :)

I've been talking to fabien and we've been thinking of this kind of setup:

It should be a seperate site.  There's too much functionality for it to be a
direct part of merbunity and I don't think it would be best served this
way.  The two functions are quite different.

We have a domain for it slicehub.com where we think it should go.

As far as how to construct the site, I think the major (starting) features
should be:

Description (detail page), Team, Wiki, Versioning   (Each slice gets one of
each)  Also different types of markup should be allowed.

The secondary features that I think would be in the ball park would be:
  gem server integration, voting system that takes into account current
trends not just overall votes, public spec behavior (shame if it uses non
public api, fails etc)

It would be nice if we could implement the main functionality as a slice or
slices but I'm keen to just get something awesome happening ;)

Yehuda has created a repository for the site at
http://github.com/wycats/slicehub/tree/master.  I've generated a fresh
application for it and put it up there.

Please if you'd like to work on it, lets get a page up on the wiki and start
getting the main features up on there.  People can claim what they want to
do and work in a fork that we can then pull into the main repo.  Please no
mocks for specs...  For controller specs, no dispatch_to, get, put, post,
delete specs.  Lets stick with the request helper for all
controller/view/router specs.

What do you guys think?
