Now that i've got blogging powered by couchdb and some other stuff powered by couchdb done for my seductiveapps.com platform,
i'm looking to start on email and chat features, between couchdb users and even between roles or between a user and someone from a role. a role like 'law enforcement', because new anti-terror laws here require that i build in a backdoor to any system that exposes blogging features to the world. plus, i need reliable scalable email and chat features anyways for the more advanced future features of my cms (webshop, forum, etc). so, i'm looking for smart db design ideas (i use php-couchdb and pouchdb), and if any library to do this exists that's free to use commercially, i'd love to hear about that too.
