Yeh the 3 founders essentially being pulled off the project to a competitor definitely took its toll.
However one founder has returned full time to the project, and while I would still describe it as 'in recovery' its definitely looking promising, there have been more contributors than ever this year, theres exciting work in progress in the works including this bigcouch merge and fauxton, as ell as couch related project like hood.ie and (forgive the self promotion) pouchdb.com
So its looking up, this email definitely sums up the current enthusiam for me - http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/couchdb-dev/201307.mbox/browser http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/couchdb-dev/201307....
- nslater 13y agoDale, did you mean to link to this: http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/couchdb-dev/201307.mbox/%3C3CD8BEDD-EEE0-4C39-8DCA-81D92C226831@apache.org%3E http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/couchdb-dev/201307....

- evangineer 13y agoI found Jan Lehnardt's vision for CouchDB very compelling. It allows CouchDB to be the feature-rich core of a large, complex ecosystem, yet retain a ruthless focus on being the best multi-master replicating database available.
- janl 13y agoThank you :)
- evangineer 13y agoSee also Benoit Chesneau's CouchDB vision which he has partly implemented in his own fork: https://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/couchdb-dev/201307.mbox/%3C1A7DC502-29E9-48A3-AD82-D98A331E180E@apache.org%3E https://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/couchdb-dev/201307...
- kinleyd 13y agoBenoit is doing a great job contributing to CouchDB. He also moderates the CouchDB community on G+: https://plus.google.com/communities/112687873154936256826 https://plus.google.com/communities/112687873154936256826
- fizzbar 13y agoI should observe that daleharvey is being very modest by the casual mention of PouchDB, which I think is actually one of the coolest things the Couch ecosystem has going for it right now. :)
- jchrisa 13y agoPouchDB is serious. I hope Mozilla picks it up for their mobile OS.
