Folks,

My thoughts here,

On the subject of replicating the methods in other apps. I agree with Marks 
suggestion why not make use of another app when is fit for purpose. Zettler 
is also open source and free and offers content exportability. If others 
are maintaining this for a particular function I do not think we should 
"undermine it" however sometimes we want to integrate the features into 
tiddlywiki so showing ways to replicate some of the features is helpful. In 
this case I think most of the features are already possible in tiddlywiki.

However I think our first thought should be to developing the tools to 
import and export from such a tool so that people can choose the tool that 
best suits and freely interchange content. This is not unlike one may do 
between to different TiddlyWikis anyway. Just as if someone here did a 
custom tiddlywiki that I liked to use I would not necessarily replicate it 
in my own wiki but make use of the free interchange of content, so can we 
do this with third party specialist solutions  as well. 

For example I hope to provide a mechanism for .cal .ics and other files to 
be dropped into tiddlywiki and made use of, this would be a preferable 
first step, over trying to replicate Gmail or Outlook functionality in 
tiddlywiki.

In short rather than cannibalize other free and open source apps build the 
integration and where appropriate build the matching features as 
components. If it is compelling, in time, a TiddlyWiki edition/plugin may 
arise, but I don't think it should be the first reaction (not saying it was)

Regards
Tony
