Only two weeks ago I linked to Courtenay's "Sample Rails App", a bare-bones Rails application featuring authentication, timezone support, and all sorts of other goodies. I'm compelled to give a small link to his newest branch, however, as it's a sample app but with full SSL (HTTPS) support. This sort of thing isn't the easiest thing to put together unless you're experienced in deployment, so I'm sure it'll come in useful to many. It comes with a lighttpd configuration file, all ready to go, along with a self-signed certificate.
