Hi, all.

Encouraged by my successful experiment with a Node.js view server, I am now working on a branch, nodejs_couchdb, with the following properties:

• Remove couchjs from the project
• Remove dependency on SpiderMonkey, libjs, 1.8.whatever...all that is gone
• Remove dependency on libcurl
• (Thus, simplified autoconf version dependency Hell)

Phase 1: Dependency on a "couchjs" executable which you install via npm install couchjs

Sent this to the [CouchDB users list][email] just now; duplicated here for others to see or comment

Hi, all. Sorry to be distant from the community recently. No excuse.

I thought I might share December stats from one of Apache CouchDB's most well-known deployments and killer apps: the Node.js npm registry.

What I want for library logging

I write Node.js libraries, and I want logging. Why is this so problematic?

Note, I am despairing about how library authors log stuff not how application builders decide on a logging framework.

Hopefully this document can become a spec or feature list for code I will write some day.

The antipattern
