Hi,
I'd like to announce Rails Wheels, a way to find, and be notified about, plugins and other software that's used on Rails sites, but also a way for authors of such software to earn part of their living from their open-sourced packages, rather than solely from their sites. The aim is to give us better software with better support & documentation, while preserving most of the benefits of free-software.
Licences can be purchased in infrequent batches, and are only required when software is in live use, easing the burden on software users, while software authors have a ready-made framework for listing, licencing and supporting their work.
So if you've written a plugin, tool, or other piece of software (big or small) that's used on Rails websites, I invite you to register it at http://railswheels.com . Your software's licence conditions can be purely free, commercial, donation-ware, or a hybrid, including legacy options.
Thanks.
Mark
