[clouchdb-devel] Issue

[Peter Eddy]

Thanks for the patch, Leo,

The main problem right now is that my current employer has a
horrendous employment agreement that says that they own anything I
work on, and that makes it impossible to update this project. I hope
to remedy my employment situation shortly and start updating this
project again.
