I'm not sure it should be an Apache project, because we can't
distribute the binaries as Apache (which is what most people want) and
most people who are capable of building it would just use the current
build and install tools anyway.
On a related note, from the download page we should to link to a page
of externally built binaries (with disclaimers that they aren't
official Apache releases) so people can find them easily.

wrong end of the stick. The real issues here are:
* We have a really cool subproject of CouchDB
* It shouldn't be part of /trunk
* It bundles lots of other software, with different licences
* Where should we put it, in terms of infrastructure
I think that's it, anyway... please correct me.
