Hello,

I'm the developer of Wodan. Wodan itself is restricted to fixed-sized
keys and bounded-size values which might be too constraining for you. I
am currently working on an Irmin layer on top of it. It's currently in
a private branch until all tests pass; the chunking approach seems to
break the existing tests.
