Rails 3.0 installation on Windows was almost seamless, except it'd still just say sqlite3.dll is missing and I think the solution is to find it and then put into one of your path such as c:\ruby192\bin or c:\windows ? Supposedly, can gem install or bundle install actually put it somewhere that is usable? ...

I thought I would start a wiki for links to old rails documentation since "Rails 3 is greatest thing since sliced bread" :). Rails 3 IS awesome, but I'm not moving to it yet. I can't find docs for 2.3.5 or 2.3.8 anywhere. The closest I can find to what I need is this: http://railsbrain.com/api/rails-2.3.2/doc/index.html +1 to anyone wh...
