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  -.... (Eric?)
