@Hongli, Pekka, Patrick: Thanks!

@John Jones: I doubt that Google is gonna add much to their knowledge just by hosting JavaScripts. :) But we hear ya. We’ll look into falling back on local copies.

@MikeInaz: Thanks for pointing that out. We’ll definitely do something about it.

Definitely more enjoyable to search than the rails rdoc. I find the look appealing and easy to read. The search menu works great. Good work guys! Keep it up, it will surely become one of those assets you can’t do without.

I’ve been using this since you guys launched and must say this is the first rails documentation site that I’ve been actually using more than once.

There’s only one problem. I have to login in every time I visit your site after I close my browser. Mainly I use this as a fluid app (SSB). I’ve tried this in other browsers and it has the same behavior (camino, firefox). Could you add a “remember me” feature?

Nice site but there is one show-stopper for me. Using googleapi for the JavaScript hosting. I am in the “Google knows too much already camp” so this site is essentially useless for me as it is blocked by noscript.

Any change of a self-hosted (Naturally unsupported since it is secondary) fallback if the googleapi link fails?

Great work guys! This is definitely the best and the most usable Rails documentation project ever seen.

Keep on the good work!

Cool. Now that the search bug has been fixed I think I’ll use this as my primary Rails documentation site from now on. :)
