Hi,

>From a horizontal scaling, distributed database standpoint, I feel the 
semantics used in ODB aren't quite right (although they are pretty cool 
nonetheless). I apologize for being pedantic, but to me, a "cluster" should 
be a group of nodes in the distributed data setup. As I understand 
computing distribution, what ODB calls "clusters" should actually be called 
"shards", as it is the concept of sharding that is being done with the 
clusters, right?

Or am I totally out to lunch?
