Hi tiddlygrp - cloud hosting is supported: dropbox and owncloud and ... >
Does Dropbox support webdav? I can't find any reference beyond add-on services like http://dropdav.com that overlay webdav on top of Dropbox's own API But generally I'm emphatically agreeing that WebDav is cool, to the extent that it is implemented. But it's not sufficient for TW5 to *just* support webdav, hence my comments about TW5 evolving a generic internal interface that allows pluggable storage providers, including WebDAV. That work is quite advanced in the case of TiddlyWeb.
