I also like the book idea and I tend to agree with the latter. I'd like to throw in, though, that although Rails has pretty good resources for many topics, they are really hard to find sometimes when you don't exactly know what to search for. I've been mulling over a distributed mechanism to supply that need the other day. Like: mark up content (tutorials, walkthroughs, q&a) with some kind of suited Microformat "in the wild", have a pub/sub mechanism in place and display the resources at central places, which also might be moderated/gardened by volunteers. Apps like railsweenie could add the necessary Microformats (or whatever conventions) automatically. Maybe this might be a more powerful approach than creating yet another walled community site? -- sven fuchs [EMAIL PROTECTED] artweb design http://www.artweb-design.de grünberger 65 + 49 (0) 30 - 47 98 69 96 (phone) d-10245 berlin + 49 (0) 171 - 35 20 38 4 (mobile) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Core" group.
