Hiya Måns,

Whilst working on the StudentNotebook an effort was made to ensure
that as much of the code written as possible was not Wikispaces
specific and I think that we were quite successful in this respect.
However, at this early stage in the development it was necessary to
add some "glue" if you will to hold the different pieces together and
this is what makes it a little difficult at this time to easily adapt
the SN to work with a server component other than Wikispaces. My
intention is that the next release of the SN will be server agnostic
and you will be able to choose which serverside wiki to work with.

I am however curious as to your reasoning behind wanting to use an
entirely TiddlyWiki based solution only. Are there some compelling
circumstances or reasons? We started off working with TiddlyWiki on
the server but ended up settling on Wikispaces because a) It has a
much more user friendly UI (from the students perspective at least!),
(b) it is accessible to screen readers (which is a legal obligation in
a lot of educational institutions) and (c) because it allows for
discussion features as well eliminating the need for a separate
bulletin board for the class such as WebCT. I realize that your
situation is rather different from that of Andrew's class but I'd love
to understand your needs better.

Also, if you are able to share a copy of the TiddlyWiki you wish to
adapt for this purpose, that will allow me to offer better advice as
well.
Cheers,
Saq
