Hi,
I decided to stop working on the CouchDB backend. I'm sorry.
Bad news, it was a good idea James supporting couchdb
There is something to be said for persisting and finishing, but I do not enjoy
writing it and I don't need it. I'm going to focus instead on what I set out to
do, write a webmail application. I will persist in that.
I learned that what I wanted to do is not a good design at all. I thought it would be
easy to write my webmail application on top of CouchDB and have James "fish from the
same pool". This would create a tight coupling between my app and James, and leaves
me at the mercy of future changes to the API.
Instead, I'll just write my app on top of IMAP, and in fact, I couldn't care
less how the mail server stores my email.
Yeah, this is the approach used by HUPA (the webmail of James), take
a look to its architecture in this presentation:
http://www.slideshare.net/dodotis/apache-jameshupa-gwt
Why not adding the presentation or its link to the hupa documentation?
We are lacking good documentation.
Regards
Felix
