Would you have a suggestion on cleanup of abandoned sessions? Here's my use case: Web site sells unique/limited quantity items. User puts item in cart; item is now unavailable to other users. User abandons cart (stops interacting with site for 30 minutes) Cart is "emptied", item is returned to inventory. Interested in any ideas on the most Rails-ish way to handle this. -- Hassan Schroeder ------------------------ [email protected] twitter: @hassan --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
