I wanted to incorporate MongoDB into a C++ server at one point. Their C/C++ client is literally unusable. I went to look into writing my own that actually worked and their network protocols are almost impossible to understand. BSON is a wreck and basically the whole thing discouraged me from ever trying to interact with that project again.
