Hans There has been some discussion about this topic. Eric is writing a book and I have made a start on one. There are several others are interested too. I think that the general feeling is that some kind of funding model is required. I was looking at the one of the files on Github and reading Jeremy's TW5 documentation. I think that, while being hard to understand, some pointers towards these might help. Exploring the idea of "docs curator" is a good idea IMHO. Perhaps we could take time out from Tiddling our TW and get our heads together..... - my latest thought is this; Do some research which incorporates the history of TW, get funding from a research body. TW might make an interesting study for an academic interested in open innovation Alex On 24 February 2012 05:08, HansBKK <[email protected]> wrote: > On Thursday, February 23, 2012 11:50:15 PM UTC+7, Eric Weir wrote: >> >> That makes me think that few people are learning about TW or that those >> that do abandon it pretty quickly because the skill prerequisites for using >> it are so high.
