Hi:

I am a newbie to ruby as well as rails. Just finished the depot  
application. Before I start writing application I thought it would be a  
good idea to download a open source version of a simple app and try to  
modify it. What I have in mind is a - “To Do list” cos this is fun,  
small and I can also use it so I would appreciate if any one know any  
open source to do list rails app?

Thanks again for your help

There are a bunch of apps available via last years rails day.

Example app: [http://svn.railsday2006.com/railsday/team65/](http://svn.railsday2006.com/railsday/team65/)

Just change the team number to see a different project. Don’t know if  
there is a to-do list specifically, but it’s a good place to look at  
other peoples code/projects.

There used to be a team number list, but it seems to be down. Happy  
hunting.

Dave

Actaully I googled and found some of this the problem is most of them  
are outdated and gives me error as I have Rails 1.2RC2.
