How would you do authentication / authorization for embedded apps??

I haven't tested Rails Metal yet but I know that this would be a good resource when the time comes.

Thanks!

Please note that Metal is deprecated and removed since Rails 3.0.0.beta4.

Awesome episode as always, was wondering how you will redirect back to your rails3 app after you have request processing inside the sinatra app.

Thanks!
