Thanks Pedro, this is a first step in the right direction.
Now I would like to add support for polymorphism, I mean
that the item 
related could be of different class (this -> related_to
-> book, this -> 
related_to -> image, and so on)

It seems that it's not a simple case 
(http://blog.hasmanythrough.com/2006/4/3/polymorphic-t
hrough)

Does it changed with Rails 2.0 ?

I tried the solution provided on the hasmanythrough blog but
without 
success.

Should I go to the has_many_polymorphs plugin ?? 
(http://blog.evanweaver.com/files
/doc/fauna/has_many_polymorphs/files/README.html)

I don't like the idea of overusing plugins when I don't know
how to 
handle a special situation... It's kind of black box in that
case

Thanks
