Tim Lucas, of the very popular toolmantim.com Rails blog has saved me a good deal of work by wrapping the Kropper code into a Rails plugin. He’s also using Kropper on webjam.com.au. This is great news, and it’s really gratifying to me that a) people like my first open-source project enough to contribute code to it, and b) someone as smart and talented as Tim is contributing. I’ve read Tim’s blog quite a bit since I started working with Rails, and it feels great that to be collaborating with one of the people I’ve learned from.

Update: Tim has finished his pluginized version of Kropper! You can access his plugin source via SVN or your web browser here: http://rubyforge.org/scm/?group_id=3936. I’ll post another update when I get around to refactoring the demo app to use the pluginized code.
