CouchDB 1.0 retrospectives

Hey devs,

I'm working on a blog post about the last few years of my involvement with CouchDB.

I think it would be really really fun to see this same story from as many other people who can write it.

So if you've been active on this list for a couple of release cycles, please write a quick (or not so quick) blog post about how you got started with CouchDB, how you got into the community, etc.

Chris

Anyone else with a CouchDB-only posts feed on his/her blog?

You should subscribe then!

Atom if you wish, but email lets you get involved in the discussion.

You know what to do. Hehe.

I use Google Groups, so nope. Unfortunately.

Don't most blogs have RSS-feeds for category pages? (Mine does, but I don't blog in English and I don't have many posts on CouchDB.) In that case you could add the feed of the CouchDB category page to the planet instead of the blog's main feed.

My major concern is that the CouchDB community isn't too interested in my dream logs or my ramblings about poetry or stories about camping. Maybe we should do a straw-poll, just to make sure? Heh, heh.

On a serious note, I think J Chris is going to do an aggregate post of the retrospectives.

I don't have a hard rule, but I tend to start adding a blog after three CouchDB
posts. I'll go through the results of this thread tomorrow and add the relevant
blogs.

Do I need to do something to hook that up? Or was someone going to
aggregate them from here?

Fancy doing a bit of co-ordination, so we can post them on the same day and do a link up to everyone?
