Thanks, Benoit, I do undestand that. It's a bit confusing, though, because all the other CouchDB features mentioned in the previous CouchIO (not CouchOne) home page were in fact features of the full opensource CouchDB, if I remember correclty. It's a pity I don't have a screenshot. When many of the core developers in an Open Source project belong to one company, it is easy to think that the company is driving the project. That is not a problem by itself, but it does require very careful communication between all parties (core developers, contributors and users), particularly when it comes to the product roadmap if the company business plan involves having proprietary features, and not just services build around the product. That said, considering that there are already good Open Source solutions to the full-text indexing problem, I'd say the CouchDB Open Source community should focus on other priorities. -- Luciano Ramalho programador repentista || stand-up programmer Twitter: @luciano
