It's interesting to see someone finally picked up on this. I always wondered why there weren't any open clones of the excellent backpack service. I myself tried to build a clone and have an alpha type working version ready which i myself have been using for a while now. I haven't opened up the source yet, because the code at the moment is nothing to write home about :) If you like I could set up a copy for you to check out. You're also welcome to have the source code if you like, perhaps it can be of use. Just mail me if you're interested.

For the record, I love RailsCollab! It's going to save me $500+ this year alone. What kind of help would you like with it?

Nice to hear! As for help, well basically just use it and give feedback is all that i ask.
If you are technically inclined, you might want to also fork it and implement some cool new feature or bugfix. There is actually quite a lively level of forking activity on the RailsCollab project (looking at the github page).

Same goes to Rucksack as well, btw :)
