My question is regarding plugin development in Rails. I developed a  
very simple plugin. I created a temporary app specifically to  
development the plugin. It seems a good idea to keep the test app and  
plugin code together for futher development. So, what is the current  
convention for managing a plugin code in a SVN repository?? I want to  
be able to install the plugin using the script/plugin install command,  
etc.

Thanks,

Resident M.
