Does anyone know of a gem/plugin for rails which can be used to manage bibliography or publication references? This tends to be quite standard format, so I am hoping there is something out there?
thanks
Not sure whether it will be useful for you. There is a Bookchef gem, that allows you to generate book (with references and footnotes) out of the xml file. It is convenient if you want to use just your favorite code editor and version control system.
But it has nothing to do with references formatting.

Are there some free NHibernate generator tool with C#, NHibernate.Mapping.Attributes?
I don't want to use the xml mapping file, but want to use attributes, do you know some good generator tools which can support the latest version of NHibernate 3.3.1? Thanks!
I am a developer for the nmg codeplex tool. There was a new release this afternoon, if you still get an error, post the exception on codeplex and I will fix it tomorrow morning.
NHibernate mapping generator. This is probably the best free one I've found.

You can make use TT templates, mygeneration or and other tool which makes code based on templates. The tool is just a code generator, it does not know anything from NHibernate. The templetes you make will do the magic of generating for a specific product/version.
I am looking for a template generator for rails, much like the scaffolding, but complete with preset pages and css, everything already built-in generically.
I am unsure where or how to search for this.
The reason I want something like that and not create one myself, is that I need to create a website really quickly with a certain preset theme
I had the same problem that you had, and could not find a solution. Therefore I built a gem for it.

It only applies to your development mode and it does not use asset to make it simple.
Hope it helps.
Rails Yard may be the solution you are looking for. It is a CMS written in Rails.

Rails Admin is great for data management (Create, Retrieve, Update, Delete).
Does anybody know of a gem or plugin for Rails3 that allows for sending Private Messages between users of a site? I'm using Devise for my authentication.
I've stumbled upon simple-private-messages, which is one possibility, but that's about it (other plugins/gems that I found are very outdated). Does anybody know if any?
Thanks!
There are a few out there, such as acts_as_messageable and has_messages.
If you really want to use a plugin, acts_as_messageable is great if it does what you want, but chances are it would better if you wrote one yourself - it sounds like you want quite a specific solution that probably doesn't have a plugin that would fit exactly in.
We are searching for a solution ourselves.. most promising and new is the mailboxer gem. Very active development, good documentation ..

if we decide to use it, i will come back to write more about it.
and more about it here as well: Anyone knows good private message gem for rails 3.2?
I am going to start my final project for spring semester at school and looking at feasibility before I put my leg in it. One of my potential projects requires me to make an archiveable document of web sessions. These archives should be searchable (and if possible with pretty design). PDF and Open Document formats are in mind for now. Is there any thing else I can look into besides these ? I want to make sure that I pick the right plan before my school starts so that I can be confident about it. I have to use C#.NET for this.
Any suggestions are welcome.

If you want to convert logs into PDF, You can use Third Party Libraries. There are plenty of c# .NET VCL are present. Like,
iTextSharp(Not free for Commercial use)
Report.NET(free,No Support)
PdfSharp(free,No Support Yet)
Gnostice PDFOne .NET(Non Free,With full help,support)
But if you want to create PDF using c# yourself, it is a pretty hard work since PDF uses PostScript which may be very new and complex to you. First Study the format you are going to use and make sure you can implement it. I would suggest to stick with PDF since its platform,editor independent.

Our company's switching from traditional, lame Windows shared drive to a Linux install of Alfresco.
I'm the sole developer here (...go me!) and I would like to hear any thoughts on what I envisage being an interface, created by me, accessible by my team, and drawing on files stored in Alfresco, to modify some HTML files presented by the interface.
So, I would want to make use of file locking on HTML files loaded into my interface, and also the ability to save manipulated HTML files. Offering a version history via my interface would be a nicety, given that Alfresco itself can obviously be used to retrieve that data.
I saw WebDAV support, so I thought, "Hey! I could let my designers modify my pages, given team-decided boundaries!". It sure would beat Dreamweaver for this.
I should also probably mention that yes, we do have the ability to have our soon-to-be-installed Alfresco customised for my purposes, so if it is that this must happen, then any advice around that appreciated also.
Thanks for your thoughts, examples and the like.
The comment attached to this question is the answer I was after.
