It's really not a huge deal to change the patch to do ES5-Shim. How would I
handle the licensing bit?

Subject: Re: [couchdb] Add polyfill for IE8 Array.indexOf (#153)
Let's merge this and not wait for a heavier change for this on-it's-way-out
project.
The licensing for array.indexof.js is public domain:
> Code samples added on or after August 20, 2010 are in the public domain.
No licensing notice is necessary, but if you need one, you can use: "Any
copyright is dedicated to the Public Domain.
http://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/";.
Per:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Project:MDN/About#Copyrights_and_licenses
On the list several people said "patches welcome." A patch arrives and the
conversation spins off into all the various options for re-implementing this
same feature. Apache CouchDB can't afford to have this keep happening. It's
exhausting.
@rnewson @garrensmith @kxepal please consider merging this sooner than
later to keep this community awesome. :smile:
Fauxton is still some ways out from feature parity and will have it's own
set of issues with old browsers.
Just input from a concerned citizen. :innocent:
