Thanks for this, but I don't think that anyone ever doubted that it would be useful for 50% of the users and that 40% don't care. My concern is that we promise a stable release, which includes stable APIs for mission critical stuff like databases, and that I don't think we should sacrifice the needs of these 10% users to satisfy the 90%. Micah, Scott, Tollef, and Clint made similar comments on the ubuntu-devel thread. > * while we can introduce a couchdb-1.0-bin package into 10.04 to > address this issue, we can't really make it co-exist on the same > machine wiht a 0.10 couchdb-bin, so it would have to conflict with > it We can certainly make them use different directories, but I guess it's because they need to share the same TCP port? But since we are mainly interested in 1.0 for desktopcouch, couldn't we configure couchdb-1.0 to not use a standard TCP port at all by default?
