Hi:

I am new to Engines just exploring things.. I wonder if any one would
help me a bit..

1. Is there any Engine List? i.e. all currently available engines? I
couldn't find it in rails-engine.org website.
2. Now that the latest engine code is not 1.1.6 compatible does that
mean the login-engine and user-engine is out of sync with current trunk?
i.e. I need to have 1.1.6 rails to run..
3. Is there any admin-engine?

Thanks for your help.

James has decided (or finally articulated the view he's had all along) 
that prebuilt engines are not the point of the Engines framework and 
that any Engines out there, even the ones hosted, promoted and 
documented on rails-engies.org during the past year or so, are just for 
demonstration and learning purposes and can lose support without notice. 
The point of Engines is to share your own Engines between your own 
applications.

As someone foolish enough to deploy two apps that use LoginEngine and 
suddenly faced with writing my own replacement auth system before I can 
migrate them to Rails 1.2, I would be wary of using any prebuilt Engines 
for a real application, nifty as they and the Engines concept may be.
