Memcache should be optional
I've tried to install okv in two shared hosting accounts I have in two server companies, but neither works because neither allows memcached.
I could use okv's server, but I need server side access to that data. Being able to install okv in a standard shared hosting server is a feature many people will love.
It seems openKeyval.org is hosted by dreamhost, DH shared hosting accounts are a great testing environment to see if okv works in shared hosting.
Thanks.
OKV is registered via DreamHost, but hosted on an Amazon EC2 instance.
The fact that it doesn't work without Memcache is a bug that I will address next time I work on OKV. Unfortunately, I can't make any promises about when that will be. (I invite you to dig into the code if you have more time than I do right now. :)
