Hello all, I am new to this community and not a native english writer, but nevertheless I want to try and share my findings with Tiddlywiki, and to ask a question. I stumbled upon Tiddlywiki some weeks ago, looking for a nice way to share content between my home-pc (Linux), my pc at work (Window$) and my smartphone (Nokia 5800). Because internet on the smartphone is not allways available I wanted something working offline. So this is where Tiddlywiki would come in perfect. I very much like the possibilities in special Tiddlywikis like TiddlyFolio, TWAD and MonkeyGTD. Problem is however that the browser on the phone doesn't allow saving the Tiddlywiki file. And I want to be able to edit the content on the phone. So I started to look at the serverside options. First I tried TiddlySpot (with the uploadplugin). That wooldn't work for me because before the upload the Tiddly needs to be locally saved (and the smartphone doesn't do that). Then I tried to get ccTiddly going, but after some days of trial and error and diving in all the documentation i could find, i did not manage to get it working. I looked at TiddlyWeb, but the problem there is that my hostingprovider doesn't support Python, only PHP and Perl. Then I gave MiniTiddlyServer a try, allthough the homebase URL for that project is no longer working and there there is very little information to be found. The package I retrieved from Tiddlywiki's svn repository. And surprisingly easy it came to life. I can now edit my Tiddlys online and use the data offline on my phone. Next I wanted to use TiddlySnip from within Firefox to save snips on my online Tiddly. TiddlySnip allso seems to be abandoned, but some people have made some last changes and one was the option to save to MiniTiddlyServer. But there was no clear documentation on how to put in the right settings. It took me some days of diving into the sourcecode of TiddlySnip but finally I figured it out, and now I have this working as well. So after this long story I will come to my question for this community. I am now so very enthusiastic about all that I have achieved that I would like to contribute to Tiddlywiki. I am not very good in programming Javascript or PHP but I can read and understand someones else's code most of the time. Perhaps I could adopt the abandoned projects MiniTiddlyServer and TiddlySnip and host a demo, download and how-to-install on my hosted domain. That way others can benefit from my knowledge and Tiddlywiki can become popular on smartphones from now on. Perhaps someone can react on this or maybe some of the original contributers on TiddlySnip or MiniTiddlyServer would like to say something on this. Greetz, Dirk
