[Helma-user] CouchDB beginnings

[Philip Weaver]

Nice work, Joshua. I hope to try it out soon. It would be cool if Helma's
internal database were one day also JSON based but this is an excellent move
with CouchDB.

I've been working with Persevere server for a few days. Technologically it
is really cool - is Rhino based, supports JSONPath, running Javascript on
the server via JSON-RPC, supports multiple data sources. However it is beta
software and I'm working through a few issues.
