More fun and progress with Mbrship

I have had some more time playing with Mbrship.org and so there is progress to report.

RubyOnRails

This is going well, the fun factor is high as I hoped.

I did join the mailing list but the volume was so high (with well mannered and helpful responses) that I have found it a much better use of time to find things from the book Agile Web Development with Rails, Rails Recipes and from Google.

I have a couple of tables with forms and have also been able to get into custom pretty url's. All with very little code (I think less than 10 lines of ruby: rake stats does not give a clear picture due to the majority of code being generated automatically) and a little bit of html.

TextDrive Hosting

Mbrship.org is hosted on TextDrive and so I have been playing with that a little. So far I have

• added a subversion repository for the source code (see mbrship: Subversion Source Repository) it even has code in it (but not really ready even for the very brave yet). This uses a shared SSL certificate. I will be getting a dedicated certificate for mbrship.com before offerring hosting (see mbrship: The mbrship business model).
• updated the blog a little (spam filtering with Akismet and layout changes).
• Added AWStats to monitor useage

Mbrship Project

I have been doing some sketch design and have written a blog entry on where I am up to (see mbrship: Initial Design with data model).

Next step is to get the relationship between People and Churches to work automatically.

We noticed that your blog have some Ruby On Rails releated content, and that
is why we would like to invite you to register yourself and your
blog at RubyCorner, a directory of Ruby related blogs:

http://www.rubycorner.com/

We like to think about RubyCorner as a "meeting place" for the
community, also as a "focal point" where the people new to this
technology can quickly tune into the pulse of the community.
Registering your blog will help build a valuable resource for
this growing community.

Efrén,

Done. I have made the RubyOnRails category feed work and added that to RubyCorner. I have also added the RubyOnRails category feed for http://mbrship.org/blog

Thanks

Dave
