Thanks, I see that I came off as overly negative, sorry.

The things you link to, and a login; article (that I haven't read yet) put things in another light :)

I still think your webpage needs some work though. I twice dismissed hyperdex as "just another nosql/storage project full of s"#¤". I'm probably not the only one.

It's difficult to put my finger on why it comes off as it does, but it might be the density of buzzwords in the first few sentences.

What I actually want to know when looking at new projects is:

  - Where does it fit in the nosql "space"? Is it k.v.? graph? something else? 
  - Why is it different? Why do we need yet another .. [1]
(Just to be clear, I'm not asking you to answer this here, but IMO you should answer i on your homepage)

Thanks for the positive feedback. We've been working on improving the documentation (and soon, the website). Your feedback certainly helps.
