  I liked Jamis Buck's (aka the creator of Capistrano) Bucketwise: http://github.com/jamis/bucketwise http://github.com/jamis/bucketwise

  Ryan Tomayko recommends Unicorn as a reference for Unix programming (primarily, signals and sockets): http://tomayko.com/writings/unicorn-is-unix http://tomayko.com/writings/unicorn-is-unix I found Sinatra to be an interesting read (and specifically how it parses the app configuration into methods): http://github.com/sinatra/sinatra http://github.com/sinatra/sinatra

  I'm a big fan of ThoughtBot's stuff (http://www.thoughtbot.com/projects http://www.thoughtbot.com/projects). Mostly I use Shoulda and FactoryGirl, but I've been consistently impressed with their ideas and code quality. For idiomatic Ruby and Rails stuff I have probably learned more from Rick Olson's stuff (http://github.com/technoweenie/ http://github.com/technoweenie/) than any other single source. Sometimes I think he tends to be too clever for his own good, but the code is good to read for that reason even if simpler things are better in production.

  Read the source to Marcel Molina's AWS::S3.
