This thread is a good summary of why working in open source is frustrating at a 
personal level, and why my motivation sometimes hits the ground at high speed.

Earlier this year, I spent several weeks building links.tiddlywiki.com to meet 
the needs that we had discussed as a community over the years. Mark and several 
others have subsequently given a lot of time to adding links to the aggregator, 
and it's now nicely populated. I use it to find stuff every day.

And yet at the end of all of that effort, I'm presented with a suggestion that 
we promote the Toolmap over the new links aggregator. And then a comment that 
implies that the links aggregator is deficient because it lacks a particular 
link.

At times like this it feels like I can't win. Is all that work we've done on 
the links aggregator invisible? Please can we all try to pull together in the 
same direction at the same time? Why would you watch people working hard on 
your behalf and then undermine that work?

I don't usually vent in public, apologies.

Best wishes

Jeremy
