Hi everyone,

For a Rails 3 project I'm doing at work I needed a simple CRUD admin
interface while I worked on more difficult parts of the system, and
instead of writing something from scratch I decided to port RailsAdmin
to use DataMapper. I figured some people here might be interested in
checking this out:

  https://github.com/dkubb/rails_admin/tree/datamapper

I wasn't too familiar with the RailsAdmin source code, and to learn
more about it I decide to create a branch where I'd write a code
spike, getting DM to work with it any way I can. Once I find most of
the holes I was going to go back and figure out some nice abstractions
that would allow it to support DM and AR. I may end up using
orm_adapter or veneer as the abstraction layer, but I need to do more
research to see if they provide what I need.

If you're curious to see the changes I made to make it work, just
clone my fork and do:

  git diff 9a67a4..HEAD

I'm at the point where I've got something really functional, although
it probably would be nice to have a few other people testing it out
just in case there's something I've missed. If you're interested in
helping test this on a DataMapper Rails 3 app, but you're not able to
get things going with the README instructions, please let me know --
I'd be happy to help you get it up and running and/or put together a
quick start guide to help with testing.
