Robert Newson commented on COUCHDB-161:
---------------------------------------
I'm working on this here: http://github.com/rnewson/couchdb/tree/ranges
So far I have (buggy) single range requests working. The format of attachments
is enhanced to permit efficient seeking also. I deliberately do not support the
Range header when the data is stored compressed at this time.
I'm doing this in my spare time, so expect updates on weekends. That said, I
got everything on this branch done over last weekend, so I don't anticipate
completion to be far off. I would like it to be working and committed to trunk
before the start of CouchCamp.
