Ok so as this is about asking for something we want to know more about... I'll ask!<br><br>This is not rails specific, should be appliable to any technology (but rails is the one which is refreshing this concept)<br><br>
I have been following with high interest the REST-y approach to controllers and all that. Buuuut I'm still stuck on something and it is Authentication. They are saying we should use http auth since it is what REST is about - to use the HTTP protocol as it is specified. But it looks a bit limited, once you log in like that, you have to close the browser for the auth to be "canceled". No space for a "logout" button which deletes cookies since there's no cookie to be deleted. You know what I mean!
<br><br>What do you think should be the best approach? has anybody been in this situation before?<br><br>Ultimately, what I'm asking/wondering about is "what's the best way for doing this".<br><br>If it doesn't make up for a complete talk then do not hesitate and post your comment, maybe in a different thread to not to spoil this topic, please please please! :-)
<br><br>Thanks!<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 2/16/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">Murray Steele</b> <<a href="mailto:murray.steele@gmail.com">murray.steele@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</span><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
Welcome aboard Pratik!<br><br>Following our normal pattern (2nd Monday of the month) our March meeting would be on the 12th, which is the first day of the QCon. It might be worth asking if any of the speakers on the Rails track fancy coming along, (if they are around, the Rails day isn't untill Friday of that week), not necessarily to speak, but just to meet the London Ruby "gang".
<br><br>James Adam is a regular LRUG-er, so apart from him does anyone know any of the other speakers and want to invite them?<br><br>Muz<div><span class="e" id="q_110ca999369877ee_1"><br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">

Hi Guys!
<br><br>This is my first message to the group, so a lil bit about myself. I<br>have been running <a href="http://freeonrails.com" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">freeonrails.com</a>
for long time now and coming to<br>London from India, for a job, this monday.
<br><br>I had recently come across<br><a href="http://qcon.infoq.com/qcon/tracks/show_track.jsp?trackOID=31" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">http://qcon.infoq.com/qcon/tracks/show_track.jsp?trackOID=31
</a> That's<br>qcon to be held in London. I guess March LRUG meet could be real fun
<br>if we can get some of these guys for the meet. Just a thought.<br><br>Thanks,<br>Pratik<br><br>On 2/16/07, Graeme Mathieson <<a href="mailto:mathie@rubaidh.com" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">
