And only one thing to dislike it:

File 
'/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/index-0.1dev_r307-py2.5.egg/index/controllers/remote.py',
line 114 in disp_hotel
  db.update([place_doc])
File 
'/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/CouchDB-0.5-py2.5.egg/couchdb/client.py',
line 528 in update
File 
'/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/CouchDB-0.5-py2.5.egg/couchdb/client.py',
line 839 in post
File 
'/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/CouchDB-0.5-py2.5.egg/couchdb/client.py',
line 888 in _request
PreconditionFailed: ('conflict', 'Update conflict')

If you update the same register in a short period of time you get an
'Update conflict' exception. You can solve this issue slicing a
document in more documents or with a more complex (and maybe blocker)
client. A non blocking server isn't cheap.

Slicing a document not every times is easy. You can do a tricky joins
with the power of collation[1]. But joins are tricky and generates
secondary efects (complex or impossible querys).

Couchdb is great *in his application field* like any other storage
system. Relational DB are great in his application field, the error is
use Relational DB for everything. You can see Tokyo Cabinet, Durus,
PyTables, RRD Tools and a lot of tools to solve your concrete storage
issues. CouchDB isn't panacea, but it's really great ;-)

Excuse me poor english. I hope that the idea can be understandable.

Regards,
Javi
