+2.0 (2-17-2008)
+    * [Ben  Wyrosdick] - Added a migration helper that gives migration scripts a <tt>userstamps</tt>
+                         method.
+    * [Marshall Roch]  - Stamping can be temporarily turned off using the 'without_stamps' class
+                         method. 
+      Example:
+        Post.without_stamps do
+          post = Post.find(params[:id])
+          post.update_attributes(params[:post])
+          post.save
+        end
+
+    * Models that should receive updates made by 'stampers' now use the acts_as_stampable class
+      method. This sets up the belongs_to relationships and also injects private methods for use by
+      the individual callback filter methods.
+
+    * Models that are responsible for updating now use the acts_as_stamper class method. This
+      injects the stamper= and stamper methods that are thread safe and should be updated per
+      request by a controller.
+
+    * The Userstamp module is now meant to be included with one of your project's controllers (the
+      Application Controller is recommended). It creates a before filter called 'set_stampers' that
+      is responsible for setting all the current Stampers.

+= Userstamp Plugin (v 2.0)
+
+== Overview
+
+The Userstamp Plugin extends ActiveRecord::Base[http://api.rubyonrails.com/classes/ActiveRecord/Base.html] to add automatic updating of 'creator',
+'updater', and 'deleter' attributes. It is based loosely on the ActiveRecord::Timestamp[http://api.rubyonrails.com/classes/ActiveRecord/Timestamp.html] module.
+
+Two class methods (<tt>model_stamper</tt> and <tt>stampable</tt>) are implemented in this plugin.
+The <tt>model_stamper</tt> method is used in models that are responsible for creating, updating, or
+deleting other objects. The <tt>stampable</tt> method is used in models that are subject to being
+created, updated, or deleted by 'stampers'.
+
+
+== Installation
+ - As Rails plugin: `script/plugin install git://github.com/delynn/userstamp.git `
+ - As gem: ` sudo gem install userstamp -s http://gemcutter.org `
+
+Once installed you will need to restart your application for the plugin to be loaded into the Rails
+environment.
+
+You might also be interested in using Piston[http://piston.rubyforge.org/index.html] to manage the
+importing and future updating of this plugin.
+
+== Usage
+In this new version of the Userstamp plug-in, the assumption is that you have two different
+categories of objects; those that mani˝pulate, and those that are manipulated. For those objects
+that are being manipulated there's the Stampable module and for the manipulators there's the
+Stamper module. There's also the actual Userstamp module for your controllers that assists in
+setting up your environment on a per request basis.
+
+To better understand how all this works, I think an example is in order. For this example we will
+assume that a weblog application is comprised of User and Post objects. The first thing we need to
+do is create the migrations for these objects, and the plug-in gives you a <tt>userstamps</tt>
+method for very easily doing this:
+
+  class CreateUsers < ActiveRecord::Migration
+    def self.up
+      create_table :users, :force => true do |t|
+        t.timestamps
+        t.userstamps
+        t.name
+      end
+    end
+    
+    def self.down
+      drop_table :users
+    end
+  end
+  
+  class CreatePosts < ActiveRecord::Migration
+    def self.up
+      create_table :posts, :force => true do |t|
+        t.timestamps
+        t.userstamps
+        t.title
+      end
+    end
+    
+    def self.down
+      drop_table :posts
+    end
+  end
+
+Second, since Users are going to manipulate other objects in our project, we'll use the
+<tt>model_stamper</tt> method in our User class:
+
+  class User < ActiveRecord::Base
+    model_stamper
+  end
+
+Finally, we need to setup a controller to set the current user of the application. It's
+recommended that you do this in your ApplicationController:
+
+  class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
+    include Userstamp
+  end
+
+If all you are interested in is making sure all tables that have the proper columns are stamped
+by the currently logged in user you can stop right here. More than likely you want all your
+associations setup on your stamped objects, and that's where the <tt>stampable</tt> class method
+comes in. So in our example we'll want to use this method in both our User and Post classes:
+
+  class User < ActiveRecord::Base
+    model_stamper
+    stampable
+  end
+  
+  class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
+    stampable
+  end
+
+Okay, so what all have we done? The <tt>model_stamper</tt> class method injects two methods into the
+User class. They are #stamper= and #stamper and look like this:
+
+  def stamper=(object)
+    object_stamper = if object.is_a?(ActiveRecord::Base)
+      object.send("#{object.class.primary_key}".to_sym)
+    else
+      object
+    end
+    
+    Thread.current["#{self.to_s.downcase}_#{self.object_id}_stamper"] = object_stamper
+  end
+
+  def stamper
+    Thread.current["#{self.to_s.downcase}_#{self.object_id}_stamper"]
+  end
+
+The big change with this new version is that we are now using Thread.current to save the current
+stamper so as to avoid conflict with concurrent requests.
+
+The <tt>stampable</tt> method allows you to customize what columns will get stamped, and also
+creates the +creator+, +updater+, and +deleter+ associations.
+
+The Userstamp module that we included into our ApplicationController uses the setter method to
+set which user is currently making the request. By default the 'set_stampers' method works perfectly
+with the RestfulAuthentication[http://svn.techno-weenie.net/projects/plugins/restful_authentication] plug-in:
+
+  def set_stampers
+    User.stamper = self.current_user
+  end
+
+If you aren't using ActsAsAuthenticated, then you need to create your own version of the
+<tt>set_stampers</tt> method in the controller where you've included the Userstamp module.
+
+Now, let's get back to the Stampable module (since it really is the interesting one). The Stampable
+module sets up before_* filters that are responsible for setting those attributes at the appropriate
+times. It also creates the belongs_to relationships for you.
+
+If you need to customize the columns that are stamped, the <tt>stampable</tt> method can be
+completely customized. Here's an quick example:
+
+  class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
+    acts_as_stampable :stamper_class_name => :person,
+                      :creator_attribute  => :create_user,
+                      :updater_attribute  => :update_user,
+                      :deleter_attribute  => :delete_user
+  end
+
+If you are upgrading your application from the old version of Userstamp, there is a compatibility
+mode to have the plug-in use the old "_by" columns by default. To enable this mode, add the
+following line to the RAILS_ROOT/config/environment.rb file:
+
+  Ddb::Userstamp.compatibility_mode = true
+  
+If you are having a difficult time getting the Userstamp plug-in to work, I recommend you checkout
+the sample application that I created. You can find this application on GitHub[http://github.com/delynn/userstamp_sample]
+
+== Uninstall
+Uninstalling the plugin can be done using the built in Rails plugin script. Issue the following
+command from the root of your application:
+
+  script/plugin remove userstamp
+
+
+== Documentation
+RDoc has been run on the plugin directory and is available in the doc directory.
+
+
+== Running Unit Tests
+There are extensive unit tests in the "test" directory of the plugin. These test can be run
+individually by executing the following command from the userstamp directory:
+
+ ruby test/compatibility_stamping_test.rb
+ ruby test/stamping_test.rb
+ ruby test/userstamp_controller_test.rb
+
+
+== Bugs & Feedback
+Bug reports and feedback are welcome via my delynn+userstamp@gmail.com email address. I also
+encouraged everyone to clone the git repository and make modifications--I'll be more than happy
+to merge any changes from other people's branches that would be beneficial to the whole project.
+
+
+== Credits and Special Thanks
+The original idea for this plugin came from the Rails Wiki article entitled
+{Extending ActiveRecord}[http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/ExtendingActiveRecordExample].
