We need a nice way to generate, track, and expire the sorts of download files that we're going to generate as the results of delayed jobs. Ideally there'd be a RubyGem for this, but it doesn't seem like anything like that exists yet. May have to work something out on our own -- an area of temporary storage, with a corresponding database table tracking what the file is and when it needs to be deleted. An expiration time of 2 weeks should suffice.
