rspec users - Dec 2008 - Restful-Authentication features rewrite

I''ve put up a Rails sample project on github whose main feature is a
rewrite
of the restful-authentication stories using features and trying to exhibit
good practice. I''d love to get some feedback from the group about the
features I''ve written.

You can find the project at http://github.com/diabolo/fbrp/tree/master

Ideally I''d like the features to be a useful example of something
reasonably
real world for peeps new to this stuff

All best

Hey Andrew,
First of all, great job!  The restful-auth stories and specs are painful 
to look at so I hope this rewrite eventually replaces the stories in 
restful-auth proper.  Another cool thing about having these features is 
that you could easily switch over to another authentication 
system/plugin (like AuthLogic[1]) with the same functionality and run 
these to prevent regressions.

I don''t have time to go through everything now but I will try to give 
you feedback soon via the mailing list or github comments and maybe even 
pull requests.

Again, thanks for doing this!  I think having this out there so we can 
all critique it will foster some good discussion about feature writing 
guidelines.
