GREAT news :-D Congratulations!!!! > Anyhow, Eric will now also manage the TiddlyWiki road map and release > cycle, and start to use GitHub to process the tickets, patches and > pull requests that power the TiddlyWiki development process. He's got > a bit of a learning curve to get to grips with git and GitHub (one I'm > still stumbling over myself) but as he gets up to speed we hope he'll > be able to run the engine a little hotter than in the past. Eric will run it like no one else could, I'm sure!!! > The plan is for Eric to use TW5 as the build tool for both > tiddlywiki.com and tiddlytools.com, ensuring that he keeps a foot in > both the old and the new camps, giving the community continuity as we > transition from the old code to the new. :-D Good thinking!!! > Part of the motivation for the change is to allow me to focus on > TiddlyWiki5 development, and building up consultancy work to fund it. > But it's also a first step towards the "TiddlyWiki collective", > pulling together a core group who are dedicated to working on > TiddlyWiki, and creating a sustainable business model to do so. I really hope that some of the very gifted programmers who has contributed in the past - will consider to get back into the TW- business making it even more brilliant, with a plethora of plugins for the new TW5... Mario Pietzsh, Tobias Beer, Jon Robson, Paolo Soares, Saq Imtiaz , BidiX,...... - Just to name a few of those who were active for longer periods of time and have contributed with plugins that we NEED to see in some reincarnation or another - in the new TW5... > As I've said elsewhere, I want to build TiddlyWiki into a product that > endures for 25 years, remaining useful and relevant. I hope therefore > that we're really just at the start of the story. Thumbs up!!
