Thanks for the pointers. Starting/Stoping when the application starts would be 
ok I guess. I could imagine to run a local couchdb per Eclipse Workspace and 
start CouchDB with appropriate paths to the Erlang runtime and DB location.

Do you have binaries for Erlang bundled too? Or just for CouchDB? How many OS 
do you support? 
I silently assume that I need one CouchDB build per OS. Is this right?
