Firstly, thanks for the write up Paul.
However, after looking at the feedback from the CouchDB book and
monitoring the
community response to CouchDB I am starting to feel that any kind of
comparison
to RDBMS is a harmful one, unless done very, very carefully.
any why X is better than Y is almost always counter productive unless
its very well reasoned
and in depth- if you don't go for a persuasive argument, all you have
is a flame war waiting to happen.
