[LRUG] FW: Redirects on heroku

I made a rack middleware for just this situation, which someone kindly
turned into a gem:
http://github.com/logicaltext/rack-no-www
I think that should work pretty well.
BTW - I'm new to this list, so I should introduce myself. I'm a Ruby
developer currently living in Chicago, but I'm hoping to move to
London shortly. I was very happy to find an active Ruby group in
London, and I'm looking forward to meeting you all if/when I make it
out there!
