I want to use ActiveRecord outside of Rails to do processing on large tables.

Or is there some other way I can distribute the RSpec/RCov results with my Gem integrated with RDoc? I can include

To me, it violates the principle

Is there any way to use a link_to method within a controller through a :flash notice? If a user enters an incorrect username/password, I want to have a link to a forgotten password form readily available.
