Subject: Rails Petstore v0.1 Released

I have released Rails Petstore, a rails implementation of JPetstore.
The goals of the project is to build a reference web application that
exercises the capabilities of the Rails framework, illustrates best
practices, and provides a useful starting point for those new to Rails.

With the initial v0.1 release, I can't claim that any of the goals have
been achieved, but I am confidant that with the help of the Rails
community, we can.

The status of the project is this: Currently, it is pretty much a
straight port of iBatis JPetstore with minor modifications to the data
model. It's buggy, but provides much of the same functionality. Over
the next couple weeks, I hope to take any suggestions that are sent my
way an incorporate them into the application...eventually, I'd like to
get one or two other people helping out.

So, if you have a few minutes to spare, please download Rails Petstore
and have a look. Send me suggestions, comments, or complaints to
arustad *AT* gmail dot com.
