As a relative newbie to Couch (I've dabbled over the years, but been mostly a front-end guy), these blog posts have been excellent. This post, in particular, has the 'correct amount' of technical detail, IMHO, and should be used an example to inform other blog writers as to the level of detail in their posts.
Great work Robert! Thanks to everyone here for all of your hard work on CouchDB 2.0!
