How does BidiX's http://tiddlywiki.bidix.info/#storeTiddler.php work?? I had some success using his php with his iTW and the http://tiddlywiki.bidix.info/#UploadTiddlerPlugin... I wonder if we could use this as a base for collaboration - username A writes a tiddler to the TW which will be the tiddlername + suffix-usernameA username B writes a the same tiddler to the TW which will be tiddlername + suffix-usernameB username A saves the tiddler and refreshes the TW expecting his modification to show up - however he gets an alert telling him that there has been a conflicting edit made by tiddlername+suffixB and his own tiddlername+suffixA. What he sees in the story is the original tiddler (without any of the changes yet), however the two conflicting tiddlerrevisions (tiddlername +suffix-usernameA & tiddlername+suffix-usernameB) are shown in the timeline in a new tab called "conflicts" (or whatever).... If he clicks one of the "conflicttiddlers" he is presented with 3 options: 1: View 2:Merge 3:Delete If he chooses option two or three the original tiddler will be replaced by either a new merged tiddler or the tiddler which wasn't deleted... ---- If username B did the exact same thing at the same time - the same procedure would take place. The original tiddler would stay intact, however the newly merged or chosen tiddlercontent would show themselves in the sidebartabs - in the "confilicttab". Again there would be 3 options: 1:View 2:Merge 3:Delete ---- If Eric Shulmans ExportTiddlerPlugin could be implemented as some sort of intelligent advisor - Have a look at what has happened to the original file since it was loaded into the browser and let you compare tiddlers anticipating a overwrite or merge tiddlercontent action - Then we could have something which resembles serverside behaviour for local files - THAT WOULD BE AWESOME - and let us use tiddlywikis for collaboration directly from locally hosted TWs on a network.... It just has to be SIMPLE and seemlesly integrated into the interface - sth like a new tab "conflicts" and 3 options... And it would work in a dropbox.... ---- Sorry if I'm asking for the impossible, however my adventures with TiddlyWiki has given me the belief that the impossible IS possible - if a plugindev is doing some magic -....
