Hi Philippe
I am one of those Camping friends (although I've been too busy with
clients just lately to do much). Although I just posted links to your
Camping 'add-ons' to the wiki :-)
I agree about Sinatra - from curiosity I've even dabbled with it
myself (shame!), although it is nice that Camping still has a small
community feel. Perhaps some _why-type cartoons (along the lines you
suggest) might be the right way forward for a 'This is Camping'
website. Or just keep things clean and minimal.
As for content, that was covered in another post to the list some
time ago, as was a domain name. Magnus has the substance (tutorial,
examples, etc.) and a nice CSS style for the blog example. Maybe
start with a developed version of the Camping blog on Heroku (free)
so we can each add Camping-related posts to keep things fresh?
It's just making enough time to put it all together... I'd be happy
to chip in, but what's the best way to build a whole site that uses
Camping - a collection of apps and generated static pages? I once
used Camping 1.5 (running as CGI) as an easy way to make a simple
multipage wireframe mockup, but...

I was wondering how we can help with next steps?
I keep seeing all the attention going to the Sinatra framework (and
Rails of course) and would love to help more with promoting
Camping. It would be great if one of our web designer / Camping
friend could help create a catchy visual for the site. How about a
night time view of a camp fire with a tent and maybe a small
projector with a big silver screen where we could display rotating
content / slides? Any other crazy concepts?
Philippe
