What now?

Agreed, but ideally it would be great to have it updated as the dead  
links (redhanded.hobix.com, code.whytheluckystiff.net etc.) give the  
impression that Camping is neglected (also with the CHANGELOG frozen  
at 1.5 in 2006), and that's a bit sad for such a nice little  
framework! Perhaps the community could list and collate the necessary  
changes/updates on each page, then updating could be shared (I'd be  
more than willing to do updates)?

An external website would be an extra to collect links and provide an  
overview, with - say - where get Camping, recent examples from the  
community, how-to guides (or links and previews), etc. all in one SEO- 
optimised place. Also, Camping does have some advantages over - say -  
Sinatra (one being that Sintra needs a reload with each code update)  
- these aren't immediately apparent unless pointed out. A few of the  
best Ruby Micro-frameworks deserve a fair hearing, and Camping isn't  
getting all the web presence it deserves - that's what motivates me!
