bitflags for the win!

I like bitflags. They keep your database columns clean, provide efficient storage for boolean values and with some nice wrapper code they are just as cozy as real boolean properties.

When I had to write some code for jovoto that just screamed for bitflags I started searching for a plugin that did the heavy lifting. Guess what? I found something. The has_flags plugin over at rubyforge. This plugin has not seen any changes for quite some time. Until now.

My team mate Tim added some improvements and put it all where it belongs, on the celestial social code hosting paradise named github.

Sounds interesting? Check it out and enjoy the bitflag goodness!
