Report from the Apache CouchDB project [Jan Lehnardt]
## Description:
NoSQL document database using HTTP, JSON, and MapReduce
## Activity:
- Massive uptake in marketing@ activity, specifically pertaining
the framing of “The CouchDB Story”, i.e. how we communicate what
we do to the world.
- Switched website to git deploy, seeing immediate uptake in
website contributions.
- Ongoing effort to get over the last humps for our major 2.0
release.
- Accepted the Nano project (a Node.js library for CouchDB) into
Apache CouchDB. This took a while because IP-clearance for a
GitHub project is, well, interesting.
- CouchDB will participage in the Google Summer of Code with at
least one project.
- Community vote for a new project logo. The PMC is now working
with the most favoured designers for a final selection.
- (Not necessarily Board Report material, but still a big dael,
so I am going to include it: CouchDB made the ThoughtWorks
Technology Radar: http://www.thoughtworks.com/radar/techniques
in the “Offline First” category \o/)
- Finally, I’d like to voice my appreciation for the new board
report tool. Thank you all who made this happen!
