It is exactly where to put them. What would be your choice? I also disagree about documentation needs for this. Apple users don't want and don't need to know such details. It just works. :) The exact locations are also visible from the configuration page. Every CouchDB user is familiar with this. > If its not hard to fix #3 and #4 we should do that first.

But I see no immediate need for this for the current version. Changing is also not that easy because there are dependencies: The log is connected to the logfile viewer. The uri is connected to the shutdown scripts to do a final commit. Would you stop publishing without these changes. - Hans On Jun 8, 2012, at 8:54 PM, Dave Cottlehuber wrote: > On 8 June 2012 16:40, Jan Lehnardt <[email protected]> wrote: >> >> On Jun 8, 2012, at 16:31 , Hans J Schroeder wrote: >> >>> Hi Jan, >>> >>>> Can you specify what systems should use which versions, so we can label >>>> them correctly on the website? >>> >>> For Mac OS X 10.6.8 to 10.7.2: >>> https://github.com/downloads/cloudnode/couchdbx-app/CouchDB%20Server-1.2.0.zip >>> >>> For Mac OS X 10.7.3 and later >>> https://github.com/downloads/cloudnode/couchdbx-app/CouchDB%20Server-1.2.0-OS%20X%2010.7.3.zip >> >> Thanks Hans! >> >> With this, I think we are good to go to put this on the website.
