Agreed. I'm using CouchDB for a front-of-house ticketing system; the roving units need to sync back to main base (surviving disconnections thanks to spotty wireless). CouchDB is perfect for this.
I'm actually pretty worried about CouchDB going away. What's out there that does the equivalent (NoSQL or Relational, I don't care)?
CouchDB won't go away, at least not as long as HTTP and JSON are relevant. If you'd like to see more open source contributions, do what I did and learn the code base, contribute patches and ideas.
