Hi Jeremy, Many many thanks for this great release. It has a lot of exciting features. I appreciate the efforts, time and talent of all developers and contributors.
I hope sometimes in near future we could have a TW blog, a site or similar be able to introduce, discuss and demonstrate all amazing features of new releases. For all of us it is a wonderful news to see you again full of health and energy working on developing and improving Tiddlywiki! P.s: I kindly ask all users in this forum to give a try and test new release candidate. A real user test will show many blind points to developers.
