Let's be clear.
(Good) marketing isn't about selling a solution to folks who don't have a problem in the first place, it's about it's identifying problems for which we offer a solution.

And.. it occurs to me that Cloudant has been doing market research and "real" marketing - perhaps some folks from Cloudant might share some findings related to CouchDB (as opposed to those that might relate to their commercial extensions and services)?

or maybe better how to drive dev@ implemented features to the public ?

Got it, Joan. Thanks for the useful reminder, considered I am a total
newbie here, I definitely don't know how decision-making process is driven.

We will cut the "features" part from this discussion then and take it to
the devs@ list

Here we should then focus on @jan's request about the story for
couchapps.. given that until 2 days ago that was somehow uncertain

But I think too this is more a user@ topic... isn't maybe marketing more
appropriate to translates user@ decisions in "how to drive them to the
public"? If you all agree with that, you can move this discussion to user@
or dev@, don't know what is preferable.

Hi all,

PMC hat on...

Reminding you *again* that we should not be using the MARKETING list to
discuss new FEATURES and functionality for Apache CouchDB. We are not
like a company where marketing makes up what they want to do, and
development is forced to implement it. While it's a good idea to have a
feedback loop between marketing and development, I am especially keen to
not see Apache CouchDB turn into a marketing-driven development effort.

If you are proposing new CouchDB features, please make those proposals
on the dev@ mailing list. And if you are willing to *develop* and
*support* those functions - even better. Current CouchDB development
bandwidth is extremely limited, and would best be served by helping you
to understand the current design's constraints, and the difficulties
that may be inherent in what you ask for.

Best regards,
Joan

A service-trigger feature could be one of the new features of Couch
apps.
if possible, would be awesome :)

some clear design goals and a very limited set of features to add
to
CouchDB ddocs and focus on an in-browser tool (add features to
Fauxton)
that removes the need for new developers to learn git and build tools
