Just curious if there is a Rails blogging system similar to  
Wordpress ? We are slated to do a project on this and of course it’s  
going to be a PHP project as Wordpress is PHP. I looked at some of the  
Wordpress code and realized why I like Rails MVC architecture as it  
appeared to be a mess to me.

I’ve never used wordpress, so I can’t compare, but you might take a  
look at mephisto
