[Radiant] 3rd party host, need to update?

[Tom Wilcoxen]

Erik,

You shouldn't be dependent on Dreamhost (or any other host's) install
of rails as Radiant includes it in the vendor directory by default.
That's a Good Thing and you should follow that practice no matter
where you host to be sure the environment doesn't change out from
under you.

I do host at Dreamhost and am quite happy with it.

-Tom
