Hello Campers...
I've just finished a (hopefully) nicer-looking Camping 1.5 blog
example, adapted from one of the originals:
http://pastie.org/560295
Things I've done:
added a delete class,
combined the add/edit/delete method into one,
made a little 'cooked up while camping' logo,
tweaked the CSS so it looks kind-of-ready for deployment,
called it 'tentpole' because it's so simple (that's a joke).
I know there's the clean, new example for v2 on Github, but I don't
have Camping v2 up and running yet (I will, soon), so this is for
anyone who needs to point to a simple, working a 1.5-ready example
with minimal setup requirements.
Still keen on Magnus' documentation ideas (below) and happy to
start... I think the book should be a Camping app :-)

Magnus' documentation proposal:
> What if we split the documentation into three parts?
>
> - README.txt should be the first you see and should contain basic
> info and links.
>
> - API-reference. A one-page reference to the whole Camping API
> which gives you short descriptions/explanations and might also give
> a link to the book (see below) for more detailed thoughts.
>
> - A "book" or tutorial which guides the user from A-Z, starting
> with installation and how to use The Camping Server, through basic
> MVC and HTTP/REST to how to use service-overrides or middlewares.
> It would be really nice if this could be a clean, short and concise
> guide to both Ruby and web development.
