Bikeshed alert: I'd mirror what the CouchDB source distro does: ~/Library/Application Support/CouchDB/etc/default.d/ ~/Library/Application Support/CouchDB/etc/default.ini ~/Library/Application Support/CouchDB/etc/local.d/ ~/Library/Application Support/CouchDB/etc/local.ini I'd be more than happy to ship whatever is there today and fix this down the road. If it is easy to fix (see below), we may as well do that too. > ~/Library/Application Support/CouchDB/var/run/couchdb > couch.uri +1 > ~/Library/Application Support/CouchDB/var/lib/couchdb > views & dbs +1 * * * We may want to revisit this based on a close reading of the AppStore submission guidelines, when we get to that, but until then, I believe that is fine. > Logs > ==== > > ~/Library/Logs > couchdb-server.log I'd drop "-server" and go with just "couchdb.log" > Is this ok? > > - Hans > > P.S.

I guess we can serve all with one binary Great news! :) If you want to/can compile a new one (and if the paths above are easy to adjust), then I'd say let's get that right and then ship. And then improve on all the other things that have been mentioned in this thread. Thanks all for pushing this along! :) Cheers Jan -- > > > On Jun 8, 2012, at 8:54 PM, Dave Cottlehuber wrote: > >> On 8 June 2012 16:40, Jan Lehnardt <j...@apache.org> wrote: >>> >>> On Jun 8, 2012, at 16:31 , Hans J Schroeder wrote: >>> >>>> Hi Jan, >>>> >>>>> Can you specify what systems should use which versions, so we can label >>>>> them correctly on the website? >>>> >>>> For Mac OS X 10.6.8 to 10.7.2: >>>> https://github.com/downloads/cloudnode/couchdbx-app/CouchDB%20Server-1.2.0.zip >>>> >>>> For Mac OS X 10.7.3 and later >>>> https://github.com/downloads/cloudnode/couchdbx-app/CouchDB%20Server-1.2.0-OS%20X%2010.7.3.zip >>> >>> Thanks Hans! >>> >>> With this, I think we are good to go to put this on the website.
