Dirkjan,
understood, loud and clear. And I think we all agree with you :)
In fact, we made a few changes to the way we manage the code and releases
to improve all of that, but I think
Agreed. Thanks for the honest feedback. Massively appreciated.
I have been very frustrated with the 1.3.0 release. It was, and still is,
supposed to be the first of our regular releases. Unfortunately, the
release was mired with a raft of CVEs that came first, and then some thorny
blockers. Not
+1. We are conscious of our release process failings but it's great to
see an uninhibited reminder like this.
We're aiming for regular, frequent releases after this one, as Noah
says. I want to see that process so regular that it becomes boring.
You should come to expect that a fix is out within
There's a lot of work that could be done to a lot of the internals of

Devs,
I have asked Sally to forward us any PR news about CouchDB.
I've also just set up a weekly Google Alert for CouchDB that will post
news to the dev list. Now, this might be a really terrible idea. But it
might also be a really good idea. And I guess we won't know until we
receive a few of
Okay, so the Google Alerts thing got cancelled. Thanks whoever that was! ;)
Had a chat with Infra, and they don't like this sort of thing being sent to
a list for exactly that reason.
I will have them sent to me and just forward interesting bits for now.

My goals right now for CouchDB are focused around how users interact with

Specifically, I want to see fauxton fully functional with a vibrant plugin

The other big area is how users extend functionality of CouchDB with

I would like to propose a new release procedure:

How this differs from the old release procedure:
