Hello,  
I have many to many relationship between Venue and Catalog

```
class Venue < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :venue_catalogs
  has_many :catalogs, :through => :venue_catalogs
end

class VenueCatalog < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :venue
  belongs_to :catalog
end

class Catalog < ActiveResource
end
```

when I call url /venues.xml I get  
undefined method `quoted\_table\_name’ for Catalog:Class

seems belongs\_to ActiveResource is not recognizing catalog is not an  
ActiveRecord.
