Marcelo,

If you don't require any integration between Radiant and your other 
applications, the proper way to do it would be in your webserver 
configuration, with rewrite rules, perhaps.  Then your apps don't need 
to necessarily know about each other.  This is the way we did it at 
KCKCC, with Litespeed web server.  For example:

http://kckcc.edu/ (Radiant)
http://kckcc.edu/college-support-services/buildings-and-grounds/events/ 
(A room reservation calendar, separate Rails app)
http://kckcc.edu/library/morgue (A journal index Rails app)
http://kckcc.edu/academics/class-schedules (The POST location of the 
form is a Perl script on another box, through proxy)

As you can see, there are lots of ways to make your apps look integrated 
into your main site.
