Sorry for my inaccuracy, I just want to implement a lightweight local store that can replicate with CouchDB (Don't need a web server to export my data). My little Android app is only about 64KByte now, it's not likely to include an extra dependency to a several MB package. What I need to know is how Couch replicator works, maybe plus _id/rev/Etag generation rules. The replicator algorithm thread does help. :) >> I also create a quora entry. >> http://www.quora.com/What-is-the-CouchDB-replication-protocol > > I'm not really sure what good this does when you also ask here. Just trying to make these information easier to access on the web. Mailing list doesn't seems like a great place to rank and organize answers. >>> what's wrong with using the regular CouchDB Document API? >>> >>>  http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/HTTP_Document_API Nothing wrong with it, I'll use CouchDB Document API once I figure out the replicator logic. >>> Cheers >>> Jan >>> -- -- - sleepnova
