That's not a fair thing to say. We (the Ubuntu One team, working with the people from CouchIO/CouchBase/MemBase) couldn't get CouchDB to scale the way we wanted it to work; millions of users, many oauth tokens and several databases for each. It's not reasonable to say that it doesn't scale at all, and that's not the case; there are plenty of people using CouchDB to store billions of documents, and we don't want people saying that Couch is "fundamentally flawed", because it isn't; it just wasn't right for the Ubuntu One use-case. Please don't denigrate people and projects unjustifiably; that helps no-one.
