Hi
The 0 or 1 is arbitrary, so long as the child document has a higher number than the parent you are ok. If you express your date as a number you could use that instead of the 0 and 1, I think, to see all posts in a date range. The problem is you would get orphaned comments, but I think it's easier to drop them in the application.
Hope that helps
Simon

Hi,

I've read about view collation in cmlenz' blog
(http://www.cmlenz.net/archives/2007/10/couchdb-joins). The problem I
have at the moment is similar, but I need an additional feature. I'd
like to have a view that returns the blog entry along with all comments
of a certain time range.

A query would look like:
...?startkey=["myslug", 0, 20081201]&endkey;=["myslug", 2, 20081212]

The problem is that the entry might have been posted in November, thus
it doesn't contain a date within that range. Is there a way that the
entry will be returned though without the need of 2 GET requests (one
for the entry, one for the comments).

Cheers,
 Volker
