title: Is there a replacement for Beast for Ruby on Rails
body: <p>An open source project called Beast implemented a forum in about 500 lines of Ruby on Rails code. The project seems to have fallen silent (<a href="http://beast.caboo.se/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://beast.caboo.se/</a>). Is there an open source project that replaces beast and is compatible with the database schema defined for Beast? I have used Beast to sponsor a forum and would like to upgrade and move the deployment from Ubuntu to OS X on a more recent version of Ruby on Rails.</p>
