Re: [Rails] Controller named /2010

Ruby won't let you make a class called 2010Controller, as it is not a
valid class name.

Why are you being told to create a controller of a specific name? Is
it for path reasons? If so, call it something else (./script/generate
controller twenty_ten) and then use a route to set things up from
/2010/ to what you just made.
