Hey @alexsferreira Congratz for the nice project, but why not talk with @ryanflorence to integrate efforts to the ember-tools? :smiley:

Another thing I wan to ask if it is possible to update the project to use Ember.js 1.0.0-rc.6.1. o/

https://github.com/alexferreira/ember-gen/issues/14

Its a complete rip-off of ember-tools with an adorable commit history to act like its not (even the readme is taken wholesale, along with all the code).

Please address that issue @alexsferreira.
