ODK with Couch DB

Hi,

I work for a small startup software engineering company in Ghana. I'm
new to ODK and i was wondering whether it is possible to send data to
a CouchDB instead of the default mysql or postgres database.

I was also wondering whether it is possible to customize the icon and
interface of the odk collect on my android phone.

Thanks

I believe there is an option for the splash screen under the
Preferences page (Menu - Preferences from the main screen).

Changing the icon shouldn't be hard either -- just clone the
repository and edit the AndroidManifest file. But you'll need to
recompile the app if you do it this way. Not sure if there is any
other way.

We wrote a couchdb backend for XForms that is compatible with ODK.

The core XForm processing library is here:

A lightweight wrapper project we setup to make it easier to get up and
running is here: https://github.com/dimagi/cushions

Note that the while we have used it in multiple production servers for over
a year, we haven't spent much time making it easy for others to setup so
you may struggle with getting it up in running. Docs and the wrapper
project may be slightly out of date.

Group Complete (http://www.groupcomplete.com/) uses couch and ODK as well,
but I'm not sure if their stuff is open source.

Feel free to email me off list if you want to get up and running with
couchforms/cushions and have questions about getting it working.

We try very hard to remain compatible with ODK and JavaRosa XForms and
do contribute fixes and enhancements upstream but the core software is
not open source and we don't foresee it becoming so in the near future.
