CouchDB to WebMachine (Erlang) + SQL (MySQL and Postgres specifically). No, 
this code isn't public yet because the migration is ongoing and it isn't 
really the kind of thing that we want to support others running right now. We 
are switch over API endpoints as they are written and swapping data into SQL 
usually as the endpoint is rewritten in Erlang, so right now it requires a 
lot of magic in the load balancers to keep everything flowing smoothly. The 
general goal is to try and open-source it once it is fully converted and in a 
situation where other people could run it without going insane, but there 
aren't specific plans or timelines yet. Wish I could give you something 
firmer, but hopefully that sheds some light on the situation.

After losing multiple days of my life to CouchDB eating itself in the last few
weeks, I am avidly waiting for this to drop, whenever it does.

Cheers.
