No, it says "none of the people who've been working on or contributing

Seriously, any help with getting CouchDB to run (also build and

Huh? Who said it only works with Firefox? If there's anything that  
doesn't work in some other browser, please file specific bug reports.

Wow. You got CouchDB working on Windows. Seriously, cool.

Perhaps you could put some instructions on the wiki.

May I suggest you create and edit the following:
