Having a new official release would be great especially since Sinatra
published their 1.0 release yesterday. ;-)
The new Rubyforge page would be nice but wouldn't a more
marketing-centric site help increase adoption?

Indeed, but for now I think http://stuff.judofyr.net/camping-docs/
(or, the URL would actually be camping.rubyforge.org
<http://camping.rubyforge.org> when released) would be enough.
I think we're pretty much ready for a release. If you'd like, I could
mark HEAD as 2.0.rc1 and push it out to Gemcutter. Then you guys who
have 2.0 apps could do a "gem install camping --pre" and make sure
everything works. If everything seems fine we can release it :)

I like the idea of the site being built on Camping and combining
mini-apps and static content all integrated with jQuery for
example. I am currently running two Camping 2.0 apps on Heroku and
they work great. Hosting on Heroku would be also be convenient
because of the ability to add Git contributors and because of the
ease of deployment.

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?
