CouchDB on Windows will only work with R14A or later (note that the A-series are considered pre-releases and the B-series are considered stable releases by the Erlang/OTP team. R14B is set to be released in a few months time, R14A has been available for a few weeks. The fix to Erlang is very minor and not intrusive at all*, so here is what I thought we want to do unless R14B was available on 1.0.0-vote time: When packaging the Windows installer we apply the patch *to R13B to get the correct behaviour and bundle that with the Windows installer. Simple. Any objections or am I overseeing something? * http://github.com/erlang/otp/commit/426a5e21ab8306517ecd6d73f253d8dc13e39925 Cheers Jan --
