Hi Magnus

While I can't have a look at it at the moment (no Internet access), it's very nice of you! Maybe we can merge them and get an even better blog.rb in v2.

very happy to do that, but you'd better take a look first - I'm still in both the Ruby/Camping shallows here, and also new to github...

As for the documentation ideas, I've already implemented the templates in RDoc, so "rake docs" builds all the three parts (the book is simply files in the book directory). I still need to make a way to link book chapters from the reference, but at least it's working. A Camping app can be useful when you want to edit it, so you don't need to run the rake task all the time.

I've generated an entry on rdoc.info (BTW it uses Sinatra!) and it's done a very nice job of presenting the documentation, which can now be updated anytime:

http://rdoc.info/projects/judofyr/camping

I guess we could also implement it as a wiki, which might be better. Then we can't have it on camping.rubyforge.org (unless we can change the DNS-settings) though since it only allows static files. What do you think? I prefer having everything in files, and I think those who really want to contribute to the book wouldn't mind a "git clone"...

since rdoc.info above now does the job, I guess the Github wiki can serve to capture and edit user community knowledge. That's everything covered? Apart from a dedicated website, of course :-)

Right now I'm on vacation, but I'll try to push it out when I return. Feel free to write some paragraphs if you're really keen, I only have a bare skeleton.

if I find anything missing, or I can't understand it, I'll make suggestions about small edits for clarity.

Hello Campers...

I've just finished a (hopefully) nicer-looking Camping 1.5 blog example, adapted from one of the originals:
http://pastie.org/560295

Things I've done:
   added a delete class,
   combined the add/edit/delete method into one,
   made a little 'cooked up while camping' logo,
   tweaked the CSS so it looks kind-of-ready for deployment,
   called it 'tentpole' because it's so simple (that's a joke).

I know there's the clean, new example for v2 on Github, but I don't have Camping v2 up and running yet (I will, soon), so this is for anyone who needs to point to a simple, working a 1.5-ready example with minimal setup requirements.

Still keen on Magnus' documentation ideas (below) and happy to start... I think the book should be a Camping app :-)
