Hi all! 

Here’s the draft I’m working with so far for this week’s news.


CouchDB Weekly News Mar Week 4

Standing items:
+ The 2016 Annual Apache CouchDB User Survey
+ The CouchDB 2.0 Release Testing Plan

#Releases
pouchdb/add-cors-to-couchdb: CouchDB doesn't come with CORS enabled by default. 
This is a problem for libraries like PouchDB, which depend on being able to 
access CouchDB no matter what URL it's being served from. This script fixes 
that. https://github.com/pouchdb/add-cors-to-couchdb
