I'm thinking about commiting it into trunk soon, so it will be more exposed for others to test it as well. Raise your hand if you don't agree. Beno=C3=AEt also added a nice GUI to Futon (screenshot attached to the Jira ticket). Beno=C3=AEt, can you commit it after my commit? Also, according to Beno=C3=AEt's use cases, he thinks the _replicator DB should only be accessible by server admins. This makes sense because the replication documents might contain credentials in the source or target properties (e.g. http://someuser:somepasswd@myhost.com/somedb). However I'm not sure if it should be like that by default. It's just a matter of updating the security object of the _replicator DB. Lets see what the community thinks about it. cheers --=20 Filipe David Manana, fdmanana@apache.org "Reasonable men adapt themselves to the world. =C2=A0Unreasonable men adapt the world to themselves. =C2=A0That's why all progress depends on unreasonable men."
