The birth and road ahead of TokuMX, the alternative MongoDB engine

While not a MongoDB user (or expert), I find Tokutek’s work on their alternative engine for MongoDB, TokuMX, quite interesting both for technical — what is currently broken in MongoDB — and business point of views — is the InnoDB model possible in the NoSQL space?, what are some possible outcomes of the alternative core technology for free products business model?, would a new product bringing together MongoDB’s missing features and combining them with MongoDB’s “friendliness” and product marketing still lead to a successful product?, etc.
