I have a few question about dependencies:

No.

* OpenSSL is an optional dependency only needed if we want to use SSL
connections? (correct?)

OpenSSL for Erlang is a required dependency. We use its random number
generator to create UUIDs. There is not SSL support, yet.


* svn2cl is not needed, right? From the web: This is an xsl
stylesheet for generating a classic GNU-style ChangeLog from a
subversion repository log. I think this is not needed, but I need
confirmation because it's included in Gentoo ebuild an I don't know
why.

This is optional if you want to build CouchDB yourself. If you want to
create releases, you need it.


* libcurl for future releases 0.9 and up. Optional, mandatory?

Mandatory.

Cheers
