Now is the time to get focused for you all who wants to participate in  
creating a big e-commerce solution in RoR, together or as a individual  
person. Let’s talk more on the list.

_Welcome to the ActiveRails eCMS Google Group!_

The single goal with this list is to support Ruby on Rails developers  
that  
intent to develop an e-commerce platform. It is not intended to support  
how  
to make Active Scaffolds jump up and down or how to make Live Search  
work  
for your blogging system. All posts and answers are intended to speed up  
development for all you out there planning or already building  
e-commerce  
solutions in RoR.

_The reason I named the group ActiveRails eCMS?_

I am developing a e-commerce platform for some clients, it is going to  
be a  
big project. When they are up and running I have intentions or releasing  
the  
whole shebang as open source. This is why I named it because it is my  
idea  
for the name for this open source software.

_Think about this for a day or two_

If we all would take a part of a e-commerce system and create that as a  
group, right here, right now and then publish that as open source for  
anyone  
to use. How cool wouldn’t that be? I have all the best intentions in  
doing  
so with this system as well as selling it for my clients in Sweden.

_The more the marrier!_  
Spread the word about this focusgroup to those you think might be  
interested  
in just talk shopping!\* \*
