i am working on a base rails app that i will use as a starting point  
for a few projects.

i am using restful\_authentication with aasm and role\_requirement. the  
work flow for users to sign up, activate their account, edit their  
info, change and reset passwords all works great.

i am about to start setting up an admin area to manage the users  
(create, edit, suspend, activate, delete, purge, etc) and some other  
site settings. has anyone come across interfaces that they loved? i  
want to look around at some examples before i start. i don’t care if  
they are coded in ruby, php or whatever.
