Dear Wiki user,

You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Couchdb Wiki" for c=
hange notification.

The "SourceDocumentation" page has been changed by NoahSlater:
http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/SourceDocumentation?action=3Ddiff&rev1=3D2&r=
ev2=3D3

  Eventually, these will be moved to the source in HTML format, where they =
will be maintained.

+ "For me, the goal would be for docs/ to contain at least a brief descript=
ion of every couchdb feature. I specifically don't expect to see introducto=
ry text, example views, tutorials, etc, except where needed to describe cor=
e features. One thing we've missed for a long time, and Couchbase had to st=
ep in and fill this gap for us, is a genuinely comprehensive list of everyt=
hing couchdb can do (all those funny corners like `?batch=3Dok`, `all_or_no=
thing`, etc)." =E2=80=94 ''Robert Newson''

+ "However we ship the documentation in the source, it'd be cool to install=
 it at `/_docs` or something. This would be straightforward. It'd be easy f=
or futon to embed that (but it wouldn't be tied to futon). I'd love if the =
startup message had a link to the "Getting Started" guide or something. Tha=
t makes it a lot friendlier for someone to browse the docs after installing=
 CouchDB on a remote server." =E2=80=94 Randall Leeds
