Subject: Re: NEWBIE: document management system w/ruby

I would recommend Hieraki (http://www.hieraki.org/), which provides
what it seems that you are asking. It's designed in Ruby on Rails
(http://www.rubyonrails.org/), and can be set up though Apache, but
also has a built-in WEBrick server (which is pure Ruby).
