Hello all!

I was disappointed to see Locomotive retired when Leopard was  
released; I was using it less because of it’s Rails bundles and more  
because it’s convenient to see all of my development sites and whether  
they are running or not, in one window. Thanks again to Ryan R.  
for his time in developing/maintaining it!

I’ve started an open-sourced (GPLv2) project on Sourceforge called  
“RailsMan”, that will provide Leopard users with a very simple  
interface for managing their projects/server statuses under Leopard.  
Basically, it’s a lot like Locomotive, but without the bundled Rails  
stack.

It’s in a very preliminary form right now, but it does seem to work,  
at least on a stock Leopard Rails stack. I’d be very interested in  
getting feedback. If anyone is interested in participating on the  
development side (Cocoa), let me know as well!
