Damien works full-time on Couchbase technology now. Some of which is still applicable to Apache CouchDB and is and will be contributed back to the project, but he is no longer directly involved. The rest of the team more than makes up for i

> This is kind of hilarious, seeing as how the whole reason why CouchDB (and all the other NoSQL databases) exist is because of the "MySQL doesn't scale" meme... It is also not true.

Nice FUD :) I obviously can't go into the details, but the fact that Couchbase is the result of a merger makes this a little different.

Thank you. Now, back to work :)

You can't stop pirates and converting users of the piratery is not worth the effort. I hope this doesn't drain your revenue, but if you can just push forward and make paying customers happy and find new ones, that's where I'd spend my time.

Yeah, this would be nice, but it is also totally understandable that it is not allowed. "Just" adding reliable sync to native iOS apps and single-package CouchApps is cool enough :)

No, he was replying to @antirez request of "Check yourself in the git history". I don't think anybody is insinuating anything here. The same solution to a common problem has been found independently. This happens all the time (See the Erlan

If you read the linked article, you'd see that I am calling for an {.or}-like construct to avoid having to use inverted sections for a fake else-case.

If there were one I wouldn't be calling for 2.0 :D — Sorry, you gotta dig for yourself.

There are enough forks that implement these things today, see the Network and issue tracker on gh:/janl/mustache.js.

Thanks for reinforcing this view. I want to make sure this is one of the overarching goals, which is why I listed it in the Design Principles. The difference between .rb and .js stems from JS lacking File.read(). But a 2.0 spec could work a

JSON Template was around before mustache came around, it didn't win then, I don't know if it will win now. I want to improve the Mustache line, not make people switch to something else. As an alternative, it looks good, so thanks for bringi

On repeated compilations: Of course, hence the “Compiled Templates” requested feature. On being "really smart": These are design goals different from mustache[.js] and can be freely implemented in any other templating library if people want

We believe the Couch-part is worth mentioning given its unique capabilities (real-time Map/Reduce, Sync) and that the new name should reflect that it is a merger of the two previous companies CouchOne and Membase.

We're waiting for the App Store Review team to get back to us before we're announcing things. I hope it'll be soon, can't wait!

The edit part should be fixed, we are investigating an issue with our CDN. Thanks for the heads up.

This is obviously not clear from the video, but in the context of the conference, this worked pretty well. The other talks we had were fun and energetic (just wait until we get to release Jed Schmidt's talk on Fab.js). Chris's talk was the

Chiming in with the touchy-feely watery eyes here. My job was to talk Chris off stage after his talk and I didn't find any sane words for a bit until I started rambling to round off JSConf.eu. It makes me very happy to have Chris close it r

Your personal data db could be private and you could use filtered replication to create a local clone with only the data you want to allow replicating.

CouchDB sync is more like rsync than DVCS sync. The idea is that it is very simple, yet powerful enough to build more sophisticated systems on top of. Building small and large P2P systems on top of CouchDB is very much a design goal. The fa

For a first release I'd say this is a good thing to skip in favour of shipping :)

It's a pure CouchApp served behind Apache httpd for technical reasons. The site proper is run in/from CouchDB, Apache is merely used for virtual hosting and caching. We are transitioning to a pure-CouchDB setup now that CouchDB can do virtu

So you run naked during the time of the master rebuild? — The only sensible solution is to run two slaves at least, IMHO. — I haven't looked, but do you promote that?

My favourite lame comparison to counter the ActiveRecord argument is that at some point AR in Rails was about 25k LoC while CouchDB was about 15kLoc. It's comparing apples to bike sheds, so it doesn't say much, but it's fun to look at the c

Haha thanks :) — It was great fun on stage. I don't think you can judge the whole thing from the audio, but that's just me cutting you off I guess ;)
