[ANNOUNCE] Apache CouchDB 0.10.1 has been released

Hello,

Apache CouchDB 0.10.1 has been released and is available for download:

	http://couchdb.apache.org/downloads.html

Changes in this release:

	* Fixed test suite to work with build system.
	* Fixed a problem with statistics timers and system sleep.
	* Fixed an edge case for HTTP redirects during replication.
	* Fixed HTTP timeout handling for replication.
	* Fixed query parameter handling in OAuth’d replication.
	* Fixed a bug preventing mixing languages with lists and views.
	* Avoid OS process leaks in lists.

CouchDB is a document-oriented database that can be queried and indexed in a MapReduce fashion using JavaScript. CouchDB also offers incremental replication with bi-directional conflict detection and resolution.

CouchDB provides a RESTful JSON API than can be accessed from any environment that allows HTTP requests. There are myriad third-party client libraries that make this even easier from your programming language of choice. CouchDB's built in Web administration console speaks directly to the database using HTTP requests issued from your browser.

CouchDB is written in Erlang, a robust functional programming language ideal for building concurrent distributed systems. Erlang allows for a flexible design that is easily scalable and readily extensible.

Relax and prosper,

Noah
