Announcement: A Plugin Named Slickback

Slickback version 0.1.0 is now available on Github and via npm. Slickback is a javascript library that adapts Backbone collections to work with SlickGrid, a jQuery-backed datagrid. Extensions to Backbone include support for paginating collections and composing filtered queries using an interface modeled after Ruby on Rails ActiveRecord's "named scopes". Slickback, like Backbone and SlickGrid, is released under the MIT license.
