Great stuff! I wonder, though, how to get around the problem that the
password to access the database is in the javascript source? I guess you
need to send the user-supplied authorization data with each request and
let the couch server handle authorization issues - I saw that you can do
this through server-side javascript logic...

Don't miss this year's exciting event. There's still time to save $100.
Use priority code J8TL2D2.
