Description

Now that you've deleted the obsolete Rails login generator, it would be nice if you gave some clues to new users on how to hook ruby-openid up to Rails, since I would guess that's what the great majority of people getting the Ruby-OpenID library want to use it with.

You could amend the readme to link to the plugin found here:

http://github.com/josh/open_id_authentication/tree/master

And/or to this great tutorial on how to set everything up, which uses that plugin:

Updated the ruby readmes. We need to actually look at that plugin before endorsing it.

But really, writing controllers to use the library is not so tough, especially since application authors are free to copy any code from the example.
