I am looking for a ruby on rails wiki application. which i can download and modifiy according to my needs. i tried instiki but is there anything apart from that ? Which has basic formtting and version histories features implemented ?
Thank you
Don't overlook Wagn http://wagn.org/ Quoting Ward Cunningham "The freshest thing in Wiki since I coined the term".
Pretty great as a Wiki and searchable database, and soon to be even more of an OO application platform in its own right.
Ruby Toolbox is the place to go for this. I recommend Gollum for your needs. It is a simple wiki system built on top of Git that powers GitHub Wikis.
Look at Irwi and Perwitiky. Both are inactive now, but Irwi seems to be more up to date and is Rails 3 ready.
I recommend looking at the RubyGems site
Wiki2Go could do the job for you.
FYI: Here are the search results

I am building a simple Rails website, where users can create posts and people can search for posts. I am hosting this application with heroku.
I was looking for options for the search functionality, and found IndexTank (starter) as the only free option with heroku.
Is it a good idea to use IndexTank for a requirement like mine? Should I go ahead with using just ActiveRecord finders to implement this search or I should use IndexTank?
Additionally, can anyone provide me with a very nice IndexTank tutorial to get started with? I found few tutorials, but could not really progress with those. Thanks.
Don't know if you have seen the official IndexTank gem for Rails:
https://github.com/kidpollo/tanker
The README file comes with some examples.
Also, here's a complete demo app:
https://github.com/adrnai/rails-3-tanker-demo
Please let me know if this helps, you can always email support # indextank dot com and we'll help you get started!

Read Contributing to Rails and take a look at Github, a lot of gems (including rails) are hosted there, it has a cool issue tracking system so you can fork and start patching :)
Authlogic. It needs to be refactored to use ActiveModel. Also take a look at the feature request at the issue tracker.

I've been searching the internet without success, looking for info on acts_as_ferret. The few pages I've found show methods that apparently doesn't exist any more (my rails app show me the "method not found error", and the docs in the acts_as_ferret page are very scarce. Anyone have a good tutorial or API docs about this plugin?
And don't forget you also have the source code. Gemedit is nice for quick viewing of gem source code: http://gemedit.rubyforge.org/
The rdoc is placed in your /ruby/gems/1.8/doc/acts_as_ferret-0.5.2/rdoc/index.html directory by default when you install a gem. This should be correct & current with respect to the version you're using. That's usually the best bet if things aren't current online. It looks like there's some documentation here as well: http://rdoc.info/github/jkraemer/acts_as_ferret, not sure if it's appropriate to the version you're using.
If you have a chance, take a look at http://rubygems.org/gems/thinking-sphinx. It's quite popular and has a good amount of current online documentation.

I am trying to find a simple poll plugin/gem (the type of single question poll that's usually found in site's sidebar). All plugins that I've found are either too complex (like having their own DSL) or they are out of date (i.e. older than couple years).
Does anyone knows a Rails plugin/gem that handles simple polls?
Have you tried SMeRF, I'm currently using Surveyor and yes it is complicated. So I recommend you to use SMeRF, it is a lot more simple. But I can't seem to make it work on Rails3. xP
What version of Rails are you using?
I ended up writing my own custom solution for a simple poll I needed. Unfortunately, I needed it fast so I wrote it within an app I was working on (i.e. I didn't separate it into gem)

I need to spend some serious time reading about changes in Ruby 1.9.1 and upcoming Rails 3/Merb. Can people suggest any articles to read?
Not really looking for one answer, just kinda looking for a compilation of resources people are using to keep up with what's coming and what currently exists, so if you stop by, let me know what you're looking at. Thanks!
Rails3 is moving really fast. Updates from books or blog entry is not sufficient enough to keep up with the changes that is happening in Rails3. So I would suggest follow Rails in Github instead, although it might seem scary but I found it much more effective.
articles about Rails 3 - Yehuda Katz's blog
Rails 3 in Action looks like a good place to start. There is an early access edition available.
This is helpful for 1.9

The changelogs for the respective facets of Rails is where I get my information from.
