Hi Aaron,

  Just to chime in a bit, this swinger app is way cool!  I've been using =
an older version of it for some time. I did do a github pull yesterday =
and noticed the new authentication stuff you=20
put in. I'm not able to see my older presentations. It's no big deal =
they can be readily redone, just a data point for you, my database has =
been around for a while and I always run using trunk.

I very happy you're keeping up with this app, it's great to give a talk =
about couchdb and couchapps and be able to say "oh by the way this =
presentation is a couchapp"  It rocks!=20

+1 beer

Best,

Bob
