There is a rails adapter for it as well, called ackbar. The last release of ackbar worked for rails 1.0 and I updated it to 1.2 (in svn), but no rails > 2 is supported. If you have specific questions on kirbybase or ackbar, shoot me an email and I'll do my best to answer them. /Shawn On Sun, Jun 29, 2008 at 2:05 PM, jonty wrote: > I hadn't heard of Kirbybase before your post - but I agree with you so far > looking at it > > There does not seem to have been any interest in it for 2 years - anyone > know what happened? > > I would love to be of help with the bugs but am not an expert so may take > me some considerable time! > > > Dimitri Aivaliotis wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> I love KirbyBase.
