Hi Robert, I followed your guide line and I could Successfully install coucheDB and fauxton. So as the next step I created a document and tested if everything works. At the moment every works fine. I think I am ready for the next step *" explaining revisions of documents"*. If you can provide some guidance and resources to follow it would be great. :) Cheers
