If you are worried that no specific stack exchange site will be created for couchdb, why not just officially address support/issues to the couchdb tag in stack overflow? For example, Ember.js is doing just that:
http://emberjs.com/community "StackOverflow is used to track questions. Just tag your question with ember.js or search for questions with that tag. Please check to see if your question has already been answered before asking a new one." http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/ember.js On Thu, Oct 31, 2013 at 3:17 PM, Mark Deibert <[email protected]>wrote: > @Filippo: Can you qualify "not big enough"? > > > On Thu, Oct 31, 2013 at 10:07 AM, Benoit Chesneau <[email protected] > >wrote: > > > On Wed, Oct 30, 2013 at 10:09 PM, matt j. sorenson < > [email protected] > > >wrote: > > > > > On Wed, Oct 30, 2013 at 3:54 PM, Benoit Chesneau <[email protected] > > > >wrote: > > > > > > > On Wed, Oct 30, 2013 at 7:50 PM, matt j. sorenson < > > [email protected] > > > > >wrote: > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > >> On Oct 30, 2013, at 5:21 PM, Benoit Chesneau wrote: > > > > > > > > > > > > >> My goal is to have a website managed by the Apache CouchDB > > project > > > > > where > > > > > > >> the neutrality, privacy and independence is guaranteed. > Having a > > > > > system > > > > > > we > > > > > > >> can host where all the content is under the apache license > would > > > > make > > > > > > sure > > > > > > >> it is.
