[please read its important] error in documents

hi, i start to use couchDB, for learning (no-backend rocks hahaha) and i
find a very big bug in all documentation sites, for proxy authentication

in your documents (http://docs.couchdb.org/en/latest/api/server/authn.html)
tell

 {couch_httpd_auth, proxy_authentication_handler}


but this it's terribly wrong

for somewhere reason the correct handler it's

{couch_httpd_auth, proxy_*authentification*_handler}

autentification not authentication breaking all conventions of other handler

i have all day fighting with that bug xD and now i find at last hahaha

please make a note somewhere for the other like me not waste all day in a
change of name

The latest docs should clarify that you need the old spelling for old versions, and both work for current versions.

Actually reading docs for previous versions wouldn't help. This is the
very moment, when "typo" in docs leads to code fixing:
https://github.com/apache/couchdb/pull/103

You're reading the very latest docs, and are using a CouchDB release
that does not contain the very latest code. So this problem will fix
itself, soon. The documentation page does mention it's about CouchDB
1.6 at the top left. For 1.5 documentation, look here:

http://docs.couchdb.org/en/1.5.x/api/server/authn.html

Cheers,
