i think it can sometimes be a fault to over-engineer a solution beyond the 'fit for purpose' threshold ;) A textbook solution may be option B and i think it looks the more interesting challenge but in reality you know your system best. If option A is the best fit (and consider your longer term plans as well here) then why not. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
