With QtJsonDb, applications can store that data without designing SQL schemas and without writing any code to write to a SQL database or read from SQL databases.

Why not using an existing solution (for instance Desktop Couch) and
just creating QML "wrapper" api around CouchDB ? CouchDB already has
very very good map/reduce performance and there are mobile CouchDB
versions running everywhere (iOS and Android included). Also, does
that imply that someone might write some code for this:
https://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-12117 . That would make
much much sense in the context of access to a JSON key value store.

How could someone work with you guys and contribute to your effort off
the community ?
