I think this is quite sad, as sharing engine-code the Open Source way is in my view still a superior use. Eventhough I do agree that the login_engine was crap in terms of the coding & session-handling. Still it could have been fixed... And nevertheless I do bilieve that sooner or later as the Rails community grows shared engines will re-emerge. Anyway I am happy to have jumped ship last week to an OpenID provider. For me it's - for now - farewell engines ;-) Still many thanks anyway for having engines and the login engine around for as long as it lasted!
