David, for me, and I speak just for myself, CouchDB is a database. And IMHO couch apps are something that shouldn't be part of the CouchDB core. Benoit asked a very simple question and I gave my opinion. I think who matters should take a position on the subject because I can understand Benoit frustration about the current status of couchapp.org. CouchApp could be the best piece of software in the world but my personal vision of CouchDB doesn't include it, because I see CouchDB as a database and not an application server. You are not gonna change my mind. Apache CouchDB needs a direction. I'm not the one who decide the way to go, but I'm free to provide my opinion, I hope. And I think everyone should take a position, since Benoit asked, using his own words to "clarify this situation and start a real discussion about it and at the end take a decision". And since Benoit is a veteran with established relations among the community, it's legit that someone is not comfortable to go "against" him. I'm just asking an effort for the good, so a decision can be taken. I don't like your rage, it's totally out of control. Relax.
