Seems like most Rails applications have similar 'base' functionality. As such, it seems that there would be value in having pre-build Rails applications at various functionality points such as:
- basic User model with authentication using Authlogic
- #1 + openid integration
- #2 + authorization using declarative_authorization
- #3 + Administration module
- #4 + a Profile model
- Themes (useful stylesheets and such)
- Friendship model
- Geocoding
- ...
In addition to the basic MVC stuff, these applications would include:
- testing harnesses
- seed data
- git support
One could choose start from any of these functionality points.
Other than the sample application that are available with the various gems/plugins, are there projects such as these? If not, I would certainly be willing to contribute what I have.
