Not sure I get that... localforage is a minor part of ForerunnerDB, it's certainly not "based" on it! In fact you can use ForerunnerDB entirely without localforage.

Imagine if we had to acknowledge every different module we pulled in on NPM for every project we wrote... do you do that?

LocalForage has great cross-browser support (automatically switches between IndexedDB/WebSQL/LocalStorage), not to mention workarounds for browser bugs and the ability to store more data than what LocalStorage allows (~5-10MB). It seems like a fairly non-trivial component.

I just think it's nice to give a little credit where credit is due. :) I do see that you mention LocalForage in the changelog, but a shout-out on the site would be cool as well.

For my own part, PouchDB is pretty heavily based on LevelUP (in Node.js anyway), so we're sure to document it on the website: http://pouchdb.com/adapters.html#pouchdb_in_node_js
