What do you suggest I do to help? OK, well, "ruote-rest" is not based on Ruby on Rails. Maybe you'd be interested in taking over Kisha to make it comply with the RESTful WfXML with OpenID and Oauth. You have commit rights on the SVN where Kisha still is. That would suit me. Ruote-rest is a collaboration with a small company doing .NET development. For now, it just talks XML. The "security model" is minimalistic (think CouchDB), lots of details left to the client. Maybe later I'll try to follow the WfXML train. What do you think ? You can pick up the Kisha effort, I would glad to help, but from the passenger seat.
