If one wanted to write a couchBase API for a currently unsupported language, could one get additional support for underlying rest calls (which it seems all the clients use underneath?) How would we request such support? Any other thoughts? Maybe since couchBase isn't opensource, we're barking up the wrong tree?

First off Couchbase is open source and you can find all of the source code at github.com/membase, github.com/couchbase, and github.com/couchbaselabs. We are more than happy to help and and guide you in developing a new SDK. What language were you thinking of wirting an SDK for?

Hi,

most of the drivers are currently ported over to libcouchbase (http://www.couchbase.com/develop/c/current), which is an asynchronous, evented, high-performance C SDK.

So if your language allows to bind to C libraries, this is the way to go. Otherwise, you need to go deeper into the internals. If you can provide us the language and the targeted functionality it would be easer to give advice!
