MongoDB is great. I use it and often vote up stories pertaining to it, but this doesn't seem to be newsworthy to me.

It doesn't provide any use to people who don't use MongoDB — even if they are curious about it or interested in using it — and those who do are likely to find out about the release through avenues other than Hacker News.
