I don't have anything specific in mind. Just fork the repository, commit a post, and send me a pull request. I'll be reviewing, but won't be doing significant editing myself. Either I'll merge it or I'll let you know why I decided not too. Most of my upcoming posts are going to be going over differences between Arel/ActiveRecord and Sequel. One of the reasons I started the blog is discussed on http://sequel.heroku.com/2010/02/03/activerecord-deprecation-switch-to-sequel/. Basically, since ActiveRecord is deprecating a significant portion of their API, it's a very important opportunity to let people know about Sequel. Since current AR users are going to have to make major code modifications to continue to work with newer versions of AR, I think it's better for people just to switch to Sequel. It's important to increase outreach now, because if you'll already done a conversion from the old AR API to the new Arel API, you probably aren't going to want to convert to Sequel no matter how much better it is.
