Thanks Dale, this is good to know. Any plans to update Couchbase server to be based on CouchDB 1.1? I know the _replicator DB would be a particularly nice feature to have.

I've been using the Couchbase server alpha for a good while for a few reasons. _replicator DB has made a lot of things a lot easier for me. I get a pretty good reduction in file space as well (my wikipedia database is about 25% smaller, for example).

So far, there are only mac builds (because I'm building them and that's what I'm deploying on), but Linux should come shortly and we should stop calling it alpha.

If you've got a mac and want to try out some new stuff, do this and complain to me about anything you don't like: https://gist.github.com/951106

The next major version of Couchbase will have that feature, amongst many others (the alpha release already has it in fact).
