you should really avoid using rails 3.0.4 now. there is a security bug in rails 3.0.4. it is recommended to upgraded it to rails 3.0.5.


Pretty sure the bulk of the security updates were part of the 3.0.4 update, unless you mean this one which I didn't think was that big of a deal. https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/90aede67711476f0a63fdc...


this is a great list of gems, just wondering how you discovered all these. What do you use as a discovery tool for gems, or do you just search for them prior to coding yourself? For example I've never heard of awesome_print or kaminari.


http://ruby-toolbox.com/ is a pretty great way to vet (through popularity) gems you're thinking of using. They are sorted by category. aweseome_print is listed in the irb tools category, didn't see kaminari.


Ryan Bates / Railscast for lots of useful Gem reviews.

Other than that its a lot of "I don't want to write this..."; Google: "[thing I don't want to write] gem rails 3 github"
