Its great that this project has finally hit 1.0 so that there is a Rails based ecommerce engine available - I installed it recently to try it out. Two caveats :
1) Works with Rails 3.1 , not 3.2 as yet, although this is on its way I believe
2) More importantly, by default you need to set your online store to use ( and presumably send your store data to ) Jirafe.com for analytics ( http://guides.spreecommerce.com/release_notes_1_0_0.html#spr... ). This made me somewhat uneasy and it seems a bit pointless to set this up as the default. I had a bit of a problem trying to replace the Jirafe.com dashboard with the old dashboard ( https://github.com/spree/spree_simple_dash ) which I didn't manage to make work immediately, probably due to some name changes in the gems .
