Below: collated results for a Camping domain name, have added my  
prefs and all others. Perhaps we can increment/decrement these scores  
from now on to get a final result ;-)

agreed. 'rubycamping.com' is available (as are the others, I  
*think*). Also agree with the need to distinguish Camping from RoR,  
so not so sure about 'rubyoncamping.com'? For SEO it's common to have  
 > 1 domain, with a primary one, so (say) 'ruby-camping-framework.com/ 
org/net' might be a good buy to forward to the chosen domain. Since  
this isn't a commercial site, I'd prefer .org/.net with the .com  
variation sitting there quietly - opinions?

> campingframework.com [2 +1]
> rubyoncamping.com [10 -1]
> whywentcamping.com [1 +2] (cute but I wonder if people may skip the
