like the questions in general, and I also like the concept, I always love meeting people who are working on OS projects (even if just virtually). Although the approach is a bit different, we're doing similar interviews / writings regularly at Hoodie (see http://blog.hood.ie/category/a-hoodie-for-you/ and http://blog.hood.ie/category/meet-the-hoodies/ ) and got nice feedback. – Maybe this helps if you need more inspiration for future interviews :)
side note on the probable headline: I'd suggest using an inclusive item like "people behind CouchDB", "the people working on CouchDB" or something similar. And, regarding inclusiveness, I'd also suggest replacing "guys" in line 50 with "folks" or "people". :) Great work, Akshat!
