I'm looking at moving my hosting and settings things up in a distributed fashion. I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction for what solutions are current and what solutions may actually make it into the core CouchDB code base (if any). I came across couchdb-lounge but as none of the code has been touched for 3 years I'm guessing it's a nearly dead project. I looked at Bigcouch, but I'm a little unsure how you can modify an existing system (existing Bigcouch DB) to add or remove nodes. Also, is there any automated way of making a single CouchDB database into a Bigcouch instance? -Tim --bcaec54b48d0d4eec404d7f6b5b4--
