MongoDB 1.8 (stable) released

I don't know really - if limitations are documented like they are apparently, it's really not an issue for me - I don't feel cheated (but it's really an opinion!).

Your mileage may vary as they say: I used the GIS since 1.6 and it was very helpful for me in this form already :)

The limitations are documented as foot/side notes.

Analogy: It's like seeing "ACID compliance!" on a feature list, then finding buried in the documentation that is only the case for single-document transactions in unordered collections on a single machine only.

The new feature might be useful to some but including it on a feature list without disclaimer is misleading.

I understand your analogy really :)

Really curious: are you using mongo currently? Or browsing the docs?

I'm not using it directly, but sometimes I use tools that in turn use mongo. -- So for now, browsing docs.
