My proposal is at first just to reserve the field name and keep the use optional. Then we can start experimenting with tiddler history. I think the history should be kept in the tiddler primarily. Because the tiddlers can be forked etc., it will be like a DVCS. This needs development of a good ui to actually use the history and development of the code. This is non trivial and I would not burden all uses of tw with it. Maybe this can be best done with a plugin and/or serverside. But the important thing is there is a standard field for it. Obviously we also need to think about dropping part of the history (maybe through server persistence), otherwise tiddlers can get too large. > > That's non-trivial.

Imagine one of MonkeyPirateTiddlyWiki, mGSD,D-Cubed, TeamTasks, TiddlyPackingList, tbGTD used by a team, online and offline and optionally distributed by email. Imagine mix-match-patch writing of stories. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
