I might have an objection to that. Homebrew links into your system in
slightly unpredictable ways - I certainly don't mind them being ADDED,
or even recommended, but I think that purging all references to
MacPorts might be excessive.
On the other hand, how hard is it to figure out how to type 'sudo port
install couchdb'?

I just setup a new laptop and used homebrew to install the CouchDB

Not only was it super fast and painless but I got a newer spidermonkey
(1.8.3) which is something like 30x faster for most of the stuff we
do with
the view server but I also didn't have to pass any special
parameters to
./configure.
Anyone object to me remove all references to MacPorts in our Mac
install
instructions and replacing with homebrew?
