Hi Mike, Leo, Mat, TiddlyDocs was a project by Simon McManus (https://twitter.com/simonmcmanus), who was part of my team Osmosoft in BT from 2007. We did it in response to discovering how complex documents were being worked on: essentially large amorphous clouds of people exchanging Word documents over email, and marking up changes, with some very unfortunate people at the bottom of the pile trying to reconcile all the changes. The end results were frequently not good because the process was so error prone, and we felt that the end user pain was entirely avoidable.
Simon put a lot of effort into making the project approachable, and quite quickly got it to a level of functionality that clearly showed the promise of further development. We had quite a good reception within BT when we showed the prototype but faced the usual institutional difficulties in gaining widespread adoption. The plan for TW5 is that the drag and drop editor promised for editing tiddler list fields will also be able to handle TiddlyDocs-style TOC dragging. Best wishes Jeremy.
